1. Hear the vaulted arches ringing
With the praise of Jesus
Ev’ry heart rejoices;
Listen to the angels singing,
In our great Redeemer’s praise.
Chorus:
Crown him King of glory,
(Crown him, crown him King of glory,)
Crown the Son of David,
Crown him Lord of all,
Crown him King of glory,
(Crown him, crown him King of glory,)
Crown the Savior, Lord of all.
2. Crown, O crown our loving Savior,
For his wondrous goodness,
For his loving kindness;
For it was this loving Savior
Died, a sinful world to bless.
3. Crown him, crown a suff’ring Savior,
Gently lift the thorn crown,
Take the cruel cross down,
And behold the suff’ring Savior
On a glorious heav’nly throne.
4. Crown the mighty risen Savior,
Over death victorious,
Reigning now most glorious,
Evermore our risen Savior
Wears the crown of holiness.
