Look, ye saints; the sight is glorious

Author: Thomas Kelly Hymnal: The Hymnal #185a (1916) Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.7 Topics: The Ascension Day Lyrics: Look, ye saints; the sight is glorious; See the "Man of sorrows" now; From the fight returned victorious, Every knee to Him shall bow; Crown Him! Crown Him! Crowns become the Victor's brow. Crown the Savior, angels crown Him; Rich the trophies Jesus brings; On the seat of power enthrone Him, While the vault of heaven rings; Crown Him! Crown Him! Crown the Savior King of kings. Sinners in derision crowned Him, Mocking thus Messiah's claim; Saints and angels crowd around Him, Own his title, praise his Name: Crown Him! Crown Him! Spread abroad the Victor's fame! Hark! those bursts of acclamation! Hark! those loud triumphant chords! Jesus takes the highest station; O what joy the sight affords! Crown Him! Crown Him! King of kings, and Lord of lords. Languages: English Tune Title: CORONAE

Author: Miss Winkworth; Gerhard Tersteegen Hymnal: Church Book #208 (1890) Meter: 8.7.7 Topics: Ascension Day Lyrics: 1 Conquering Prince and Lord of glory, Majestly enthroned in light! All the heavens are bowed before Thee, Far beyond them spreads Thy might. Shall I fall not at Thy feet, And my heart with rapture beat, Now Thy glory is displayed, Thine ere yet the worlds were made? 2 As I watch Thee far ascending To the right hand of the throne, See the host before Thee bending, Praising Thee in sweetest tone, Shall not I too at Thy feet Here the angels' strain repeat, And rejoice that heaven doth ring With the triumph of my King? 3 Power and Spirit are o'erflowing; On me also be they poured: Every hindrance overthrowing, Make Thy foes Thy footstool, Lord. Yea, let earth's remotest end To Thy righteous sceptre bend; Make Thy way before Thee plain, O'er all hearts and spirits reign. 4 Lo! Thy presence now is filling All Thy Church in every place, Fill my heart too, make me willing In this season of Thy grace. Come, Thou King of glory, come, Deign to make my heart Thy home, There abide and rule alone, As upon Thy heavenly throne. 5 Thou art leaving me, yet bringing God and heaven most inly near: From this earthly life upspringing, As though still I saw Thee here, Let my heart, transplanted hence, Strange to earth, and time, and sense, Dwell with Thee in heaven e'en now, Where our only joy art Thou!
