Lyrics to the hymn, Crown Him With Many Crowns

The road and trees

     Introduction

Hello, and welcome the Mother of Gooses blog; I hope that your stay is satisfactory.

Today, we are looking at the lyrics to the hymn, Crown Him With Many Crowns; it was written in 1851 by Matthew Bridges and Godfrey Thring.

It is now published in 786 hymnals, which is less than some hymns, more than others. 

It is a praise song, and it is the favorite hymn of somebody that I love dearly. 

If you don't know how the tune goes, look up Kaleb Brasee on YouTube; he plays it on the piano, and he does a good job, as usual.

See you in the afterwards.

Wow, that was lame.

A country-side 

The Lyrics 

Verse 1 

Crown Him with many crowns,

The Lamb upon His throne;

Hark! How the heav'nly 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.

Verse 2 

Crown Him the Lord of love!

Behold His hands and side;

Rich wounds, yet visible above,

In beauty glorified!

No angel in the sky

Can fully bear that sight,

But downward bends his wond'ring eye 

At mysteries so bright.

Verse 3

Crown Him the Lord of life!

Who triumphed o'er the grave,

Who rose victorious in the strife

For those He came to save.

His glory now we sing, 

Who died, and rose on high,

Who died eternal life to bring, 

And lives that death may die!

Verse 4 

Crown Him the Lord of heav'n!

One with the Father known,

One with the Spirit through Him giv'n

From yonder glorious throne

To Thee be endless praise,

For Thou for us hast died; 

Be Thou, oh Lord, through endless days

Adored and magnified!


A mountain view... And my hand


      Afterwards

Isn't it nice? I like the last two lines of verse 3; it really is interesting.

God really has done a lot for us; He deserves to be crowned Lord of all.

Introduction  Hello, and welcome to the Mother of Gooses blog, where I write the lyrics to hymns, and the occasional recipe. Today, the hymn we are looking at is called This Is My Father's World; it was written in 1901 by a Mr. Maltbie Davenport Babcock. It was originally a poem with sixteen verses, but when it was set to music, only three verses were chosen. A tree and a bush Someday I might do the whole poem, but today, I'm just going to do the three that I know. Let me know if you want me to do the whole poem. Go to YouTube and look up Folksandhymns to find the tune. Now, on with the show! The Lyrics  Verse 1 This is my Father's world; And to my listening ears, All nature sings  And 'round me rings  The music of the spheres. This is my Father's world;  I rest me in the thought Of rocks and trees, Of skies and seas. His hand the wonders wrought. Verse 2 This is my Father's world; The birds, their carols raise. The morning light,  The lily whit

A Kalimba, Ocarina, and Native American Flute      Introduction  Hello, and welcome to the Mother of Gooses blog, where my main thing is hymns. Today's hymn is one of my new favorites, Sweet Hour Of Prayer. It was written in 1845 by Mr. William W. Walford, and it is one of the best hymns in the world. In fact, every hymn I like is one of the best hymns in the world; funny how that works. If you don't how the tune goes, go to YouTube and look up Alan Jackson, or Folksandhymns.  Now, on with the show! A bridge   The Lyrics  Verse 1  Sweet hour of prayer! sweet hour of prayer! That calls me from a world of care, And bids me at my Father's throne  Make all my wants and wishes known. In seasons of distress and grief, My soul has often found relief; And oft' escaped the tempter's snare  By thy return, sweet hour of prayer! Verse 2  Sweet hour of prayer! Sweet hour of prayer! The joys I feel, the bliss I share, Of those whose anxious spirits burn With stro
