1 Crown Him King, crown Him the Lord most holy;
Praise His name! praise Him forevermore;
Lord of lords, hail Him the King of glory!
Crown Him, laud Him and adore.

Chorus:
Hail Him hail Him, the Savior who died for thee!
Praise Him now and thro’ eternity.
Crown Him! crown Him with honor, your Lord adore,
Oh, praise Him forevermore.

2 Hail Him Lord! hail Him the King of glory;
Tell with joy, tell of His victory;
Jesus Christ out of the grave triumphant
‘Rose to reign eternally. [Chorus]

Lord and King, Jesus who died, adore;
He shall reign, He who for sinners suffered,
Lord and King forevermore. [Chorus]
