Crown
him with many crowns,
The
Lamb upon the 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 dearth may die.
Crown
him, the Lord of love;
Behold
his hands and side,
Rich
wounds yet visible above,
In
beauty glorified.
All
hail, Redeemer, hail!
For
thou hast died for me:
Thy
praise shall never, never fail
Throughout
eternity.
