CROWN HIM WITH MANY CROWNS
THE LAMB UPON HIS THRONE
HARK HOW THE HEAVENLY ANTHEM DROWNS
ALL MUSIC BUT ITS OWN
AWAKE MY SOUL AND SING
OF HIM WHO DIED FOR THEE
AND HAIL HIM AS THY MATCHLESS KING
THROUGH ALL ETERNITY

CROWN HIM THE LORD OF LIFE
WHO TRIUMPHED O’ER THE GRAVE
AND ROSE VICTORIOUS IN THE STRIFE
FOR THOSE HE CAME TO SAVE
HIS GLORIES NOW WE SING
WHO DIED AND ROSE ON HIGH
WHO DIED ETERNAL LIFE TO BRING
AND LIVES THAT DEATH MAY DIE

CROWN HIM THE LORD OF YEARS
THE POTENTATE OF TIME
CREATOR OF THE ROLLING SPHERES
INEFFABLY SUBLIME
ALL HAIL REDEEMER HAIL
FOR THOU HAST DIED FOR ME
THY PRAISE AND GLORY SHALL NOT FAIL
THROUGH ALL ETERNITY

CROWN HIM THE SON OF GOD
BEFORE THE WORLDS BEGAN
AND YE, WHO TREAD WHERE HE HATH TROD
CROWN HIM THE SON OF MAN
WHO EVERY GRIEF HATH KNOWN
THAT WRINGS THE HUMAN BREAST
AND TAKES AND BEARS THEM FOR HIS OWN
THAT ALL IN HIM MAY REST

CROWN HIM THE LORD OF HEAVEN
ONE WITH THE FATHER KNOWN
ONE WITH THE SPIRIT THROUGH HIM GIVEN
FROM YONDER GLORIOUS THRONE
ALL HAIL, REDEEMER, HAIL
FOR THOU HAST DIED FOR ME
THY PRAISE AND GLORY SHALL NOT FAIL
THROUGHOUT ETERNITY

Crown Him With Many Crowns
