- 1Look, ye saints, the sight is glorious!See the Man of Sorrows nowFrom the fight return victorious:Ev’ry knee to Him shall bow!Crown Him! crown Him! angels, crown Him!Crown the Savior King of kings!Crown Him! crown Him! angels, crown Him!Crown the Savior King of kings!
- 2Sinners in derision crowned Him,Mocking thus the Savior’s claim;Saints and angels crowd around Him,Own His title, praise His name.Crown Him! crown Him! angels, crown Him!Crown the Savior King of kings!Crown Him! crown Him! angels, crown Him!Crown the Savior King of kings!
- 3Hark the bursts of acclamation!Hark those loud triumphant chords!Jesus takes the highest station:O what joy the sight affords!Crown Him! crown Him! angels, crown Him!Crown the Savior King of kings!Crown Him! crown Him! angels, crown Him!Crown the Savior King of kings!
