The head that once was crowned with thorns

Author: Thomas Kelly Hymnal: SDAH1886 #121 (1886) Lyrics: 1 The head that once was crowned with thorns Is crowned with glory now; A royal diadem adorns The mighty Victor's brow. 2 The highest place that heaven affords, Is his by sovereign right; The King of kings, and Lord of lords, He reigns in glory bright; 3 The joy of all who dwell above, The joy of all below, To whom he manifests his love, And grants his name to know. 4 To them the cross, with all its shame, With all its grace, is given; Their name an everlasting name, Their joy the joy of heaven. 5 To them the cross is life and health, Though shame and death to him; His people's hope, his people's wealth, Their everlasting theme.

Thou dear Redeemer, dying Lamb

Author: John Cennick Hymnal: SDAH1886 #122 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Thou dear Redeemer, dying Lamb, I love to hear of thee; No music's like thy charming name, Nor half so sweet can be. 2 O let me ever hear thy voice In mercy to me speak; In thee, my Priest, will I rejoice, And thy salvation seek. 3 My Jesus shall be still my theme While in this world I stay; I'll sing my Jesus' lovely name While all things else decay. 4 When I appear in yonder cloud, With all thy favored throng, Then will I sing more sweet, more loud, And Christ shall be my song.

O could I speak the matchless worth

Author: Samuel Medley Hymnal: SDAH1886 #123 (1886) Lyrics: 1 O could I speak the matchless worth, O could I sound the glories forth, Which in my Saviour shine! I'd soar and touch the heavenly strings And vie with Gabriel while he sings In notes almost divine, In notes almost divine. 2 I'd sing the precious blood he spilt, My ransom from the dreadful guilt Of sin and wrath divine! I'd sing his glorious righteousness, In which all-perfect heavenly dress My soul shall ever shine. 3 I'd sing the character he bears, And all the forms of love he wears, Exalted on his throne; In loftiest songs of sweetest praise, I would to everlasting days Make all his glories known. 4 Well, the delightful day will come, When my dear Lord will take me home, And I shall see his face; Then, with my Saviour, Brother, Friend, A blest eternity I'll spend, Triumphant in his grace.

Come join, ye saints, with heart and voice

Author: Anon. Hymnal: SDAH1886 #124 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Come join, ye saints, with heart and voice, Alone in Jesus to rejoice, And worship at his feet; Come, take his praises on your tongues, And raise to him your thankful songs; In him ye are complete! 2 In him, who all our praise excels, The fullness of the Godhead dwells, And all perfections meet: The head of all celestial powers, Divinely theirs, divinely ours: In him ye are complete! 3 Still onward urge your heavenly way, Dependent on him day by day, His presence still entreat; His precious name forever bless, Your glory, strength, and righteousness: In him ye are complete!

Crown him with many crowns

Author: Matthew Bridges Hymnal: SDAH1886 #125 (1886) Lyrics: 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. 2 Crown him the Lord of love! Behold his hands and side, Those wounds, yet visible above, In beauty glorified: No angel in the sky Can fully bear that sight, But downward bends his wondering eye At mysteries so great. 3 Crown him the Lord of peace! Whose hand a scepter sways From pole to pole, that wars may cease, And all be prayer and praise: His reign shall know no end, And round his pierced feet Fair flowers of paradise extend, Their fragrance ever sweet. 4 Crown him the Lord of years, The Potentate of time, Creator of the rolling spheres, Ineffably sublime! All hail! Redeemer, hail! For thou hast died for me; Thy praise shall never, never fail Throughout eternity. Topics: Worship Adoration of Christ Tune Title: DIADEMATA

Beyond the starry skies

Author: Daniel Turner Hymnal: SDAH1886 #126 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Beyond the starry skies, Far as the eternal hills, There in the boundless world of light Our great Redeemer dwells. Around him angels fair In countless armies shine; And ever, in exalted lays, They offer songs divine. 2 "Hail, Prince of life!" they cry, "Whose unexampled love Moved thee to quit these glorious realms And royalties above." And when he stooped to earth, And suffered rude disdain, They cast their honors at his feet, And waited in his train. 3 They saw him on the cross, While darkness vailed the skies; And when he burst the gates of death, They saw the Conqueror rise. They thronged his chariot wheels, And bore him to his throne; Then swept their golden harps and sung, "That glorious work is done." Topics: Worship Adoration of Christ Tune Title: DIADEMATA

Bear ye the word of God Through the wide world; Tell what our Lord has done, Tell how the day is won, And from his lofty throne Satan is hurled. 2 Ye who, forsaking all At your loved Master's call, Comforts resign; Soon will your work be done, Soon will the prize be won; Brighter than yonder sun Then shall ye shine.

In the cross of Christ I glory

Author: John Bowring Hymnal: SDAH1886 #130 (1886) Lyrics: 1 In the cross of Christ I glory, Towering o'er the wrecks of time; All the light of sacred story Gathers round its head sublime. 2 When the woes of life o'ertake me, Hopes deceive, and fears annoy, Never shall the cross forsake me; Lo! it glows with peace and joy. 3 When the sun of bliss is beaming Light and love upon my way, From the cross the radiance streaming Adds new luster to the day. 4 Bane and blessing, pain and pleasure, By the cross are sanctified; Peace is there, that knows no measure, Joys that through all time abide. 5 In the cross of Christ I glory, Towering o'er the wrecks of time; All the light of sacred story Gathers round its head sublime.
