12014. Crown Him

1 Bring a garland for His brow,
Pour your incense at His feet;
Ye who in His presence bow,
Ye who stand around His seat.

Refrain:
Crown Him, crown Him, wondrous story,
Son of man yet King of glory!
Pour your incense at His feet,
Ye who stand around His seat.

2 Weave for Him a diadem,
Ye who know His mighty love;
Gather every priceless gem
From the worlds below—above. [Refrain]

3 All the Church in heaven and earth
Cast your crowns before His throne,
Magnify His matchless worth,
He redeemed you—He alone. [Refrain]
