Matthew Bridges
Verse 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 thee And hail Him as thy matchless King Through all eternity
Verse 2
Crown Him the Lord of love Behold His hands and side Rich wounds yet visible above In beauty glorified No angel in the sky Can fully bear that sight But downward bends his burning eye At mysteries so bright
Verse 3
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
Verse 4
Crown Him the Lord of heaven Enthroned in worlds above Crown Him the King to whom is given The wondrous name of Love Crown Him with many crowns As thrones before Him fall Crown Him ye kings with many crowns For He is King of all
