Author: Edward Perronet, 1726-92 Appears in 3,448 hymnals Scripture: Zephaniah 3:9-10 Lyrics: 1 All hail the power of Jesus' name;
let angels prostrate fall;
bring forth the royal diadem,
crown him, crown him, crown him, crown him,
to crown him Lord of all.
2 Crown him, you martyrs of our God,
who from his altar call;
praise him whose way of pain you trod,
crown him, crown him, crown him, crown him,
and crown him Lord of all.
3 As heirs of lsrael's chosen race
and ransomed from the fall,
hail him who saves you by his grace,
crown him, crown him, crown him, crown him,
and crown him Lord of all.
4 Sinners, whose love cannot forget
the wormwood and the gall,
go spread your treasures at his feet
crown him, crown him, crown him, crown him,
and crown him Lord of all.
5 Let every tribe and every tongue
responsive to his call,
now shout in universal song,
crown him, crown him, crown him, crown him,
and crown him Lord of all.
