- 1Look, ye saints; the sight is glorious;
- See the "Man of sorrows" now;
- From the fight returned victorious,
- Every knee to Him shall bow;
- Crown Him! Crown Him!
- Crowns become the Victor's brow.
- 2Crown the Saviour, angels crown Him;
- Rich the trophies Jesus brings;
- On the seat of pow'r enthrone Him,
- While the vault of heaven rings;
- Crown Him! Crown Him!
- Crown the Saviour King of kings.
- 3Sinners in derision crowned Him,
- Mocking thus the Saviour's claim;
- Saints and angels crowd around Him,
- Own His title, praise His Name:
- Crown Him! Crown Him!
- Spread abroad the Victor's fame!
- 4Hark! those burst of acclamation!
- Hark! those loud triumph chords!
- Jesus takes the highest station;
- O what joy the sight affords!
- Crown Him! Crown Him!
- King of kings, and Lord of lords.
