- 1Crown Him with many crowns,
- The Lamb upon His throne;
- Hark, how the heav’nly anthem drowns
- All music but its own!
- Awake, my soul, and sing
- Of Him Who died for thee,
- And hail Him as thy chosen King
- Thro' all eternity.
- 2Crown Him the Son of God
- Before the worlds began;
- And ye, who tread where He hath trod,
- Crown Him the Son of Man,
- Who ev'ry grief hath known
- That wrings the human breast,
- And takes and bears them for His own
- That all in Him may rest.
- 3Crown 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.
- 4Crown Him the Lord of heav’n,
- Enthroned in worlds above,
- Crown Him the King to whom is giv'n
- The wondrous name of Love.
- Crown Him with many crowns
- As thrones before Him fall;
- Crown Him, ye kings, with many crowns,
- For He is King of all.
- 5Amen.
