Crown Him!

Representative Text

1 All Hail the pow'r of Jesus' name!
Let men and angels loud proclaim
The wonders of His works and ways,
And raise to Him unending praise;
He built the heav'ns, the stars He made;
By Him was earth's foundation laid;
Before Him let all nations fall,
And crown Him Lord of all;
And crown Him, crown Him, Lord of all!
And crown Him, crown Him, Lord of all!

Refrain:
Crown Him! crown Him!
Honor, love and mercy unto Him belong;
Crown Him! Crown Him!
Praise Him with a glad triumphant song,
Crown Him! crown Him!
Honor, love and mercy unto Him belong;
Crown Him! Crown Him!
Shall crown Him Lord of all.

2 All hail the pow'r of Jesus' name!
To seek and save the lost He came
To earth a stranger, and unknown,
A ransom for His loved, His own;
He came to break the bonds of sin,
Our souls from Satan's pow'r to win;
He speaks—O hear His righteous call,
And crown Him Lord of all;
And crown Him, crown Him, Lord of all!
And crown Him, crown Him, Lord of all!

3 All hail the pow'r of Jesus' name!
Mine, mine shall be the tears of shame
That such a Savior was denied,
Was scourged, condemned and crucified;
Yet, blessed news—He lives again!
The Pow'rs of darkness were in vain!
Let all the earth His name extol,
And crown Him Lord of all;
And crown Him, crown Him, Lord of all!
And crown Him, crown Him, Lord of all!

CORONATION (Holden)

Like MILES LANE (470), CORONATION was written for this text. Oliver Holden (b. Shirley, MA, 1765; d. Charlestown, MA, 1844) composed the tune in four parts with a duet in the third phrase. The tune, whose title comes from the theme of Perronet's text, was published in Holden's Union Harmony (1793).…
