The New National Baptist Hymnal (21st Century Edition) ‎#125

125. Crown Him

1 Look, ye saints, the sight is glorious;
See the Man of Sorrows now;
From the fight returned victorious,
Ev'ry knee to Him shall bow:

Refrain:
Crown Him, crown Him,
angels, crown Him,
Crown the Savior King of kings;
Crown the Savior King of kings.

2 Crown the Savior, angels, crown Him;
Rich the trophies Jesus brings;
In the seat of pow'r enthrone Him,
While the vault of heaven rings. [Refrain]

3 Sinners in derision crowned Him,
Mocking thus the Savior's claim;
Saints and angels crowd around Him,
Own His title, praise His name. [Refrain]

4 Hark! the bursts of acclamation!
Hark! these loud triumphant chords!
Jesus takes the highest station,
Oh, what joy the sight affords. [Refrain]
