Musical Adaptation: Michael W. Smith
Crown Him with many crowns,
The lamb upon the throne:
Hark! How the heav'nly anthem drowns
All music but its own!
Awake, my soul, and sing
Of Hime who died for thee,
And hail him as thy matchless King
Thru all eternity
Crown Him with many crowns
Crown Him with many crowns
Crown Him the Lord of Heav'n:
One with the Father known
One with the Spirit thru Him giv'n
From yonder glorious throne
To Thee be endless praise
For Thou has died for me;
Be Thou, O Lord, thru endless days
Adored and magnified
Adored and maginified
Crown Him with many crowns
His glories now we sing
Who died and rose on high,
Who died eternal life to bring
And...lives that death may die
Crown Him with many crowns
