Crown him with many crowns

Author: Matthew Bridges, 1800-94; Godfrey Thring, 1823-1903 Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Appears in 793 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 9:19-28 Lyrics: 1 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 me, and hail him as your chosen king through all eternity. 2 Crown him the Son of God before the worlds began: and we who tread where he has trod crown him the Son of Man, who every grief has known that wrings the human breast, and takes and bears them for his own, that all in him may rest. 3 Crown him the Lord of love; behold his hands and side, those wounds yet visible above in beauty glorified; no angel there on high can fully bear that sight, but downwards bends a burning eye at mysteries so bright. 4 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. 5 Crown him the Lord of peace, whose power a sceptre sways from pole to pole, that wars may cease absorbed in prayer and praise: his reign shall know no end, and round his pierced feet fair flowers of paradise extend their fragrance ever sweet. 6 Crown him the Lord of years, the Potentate of time, Creator of the rolling spheres, majestic and sublime: all hail, Redeemer, hail! for you have died for me; your praise shall never, never fail throughout eternity.

The Glories of Redemption

Author: Watts Appears in 311 hymnals Scripture: Hebrews 9:26 First Line: Father, how wide thy glory shines! Lyrics: 1 Father, how wide thy glory shines! How high thy wonders rise! Known thro' the earth by thousand signs, By thousands thro' the skies. 2 Those mighty orbs proclaim thy pow'r, Their motions speak thy skill; And on the wings of ev'ry hour We read thy patience still. 3 Part of thy mane divinely stands On all thy creatures writ, They shew the labour of thy hands, The impress of thy feet. 4 But when we view thy grand design To save rebellious worms, Where wisdom, pow'r, and goodness shine, In their most glorious forms; 5 Our thoughts are lost in rev'rend awe; We love, and we adore; The holy angels never saw So much of God before. 6 Here God hath made his nature known, And thought can never trace, Which of his glories brightest shone, In our Redeemer's face. 7 O the sweet myst'ries of that cross Where Jesus lov'd and died! Her noblest life my spirit draws From his dear wounded side. 8 Now the full glories of the Lamb Adorn the heav'nly plains; Sweet cherubs learn Immanuel's name, And try their choicest strains. 9 O may I bear some humble part In that immortal song! Wonder and joy shall tune my heart, And love command my tongue. Topics: The Wonders of Redemption, celebrated in Songs of Praise Text Sources: Watt's Lyr.
