1 Look, you 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,
crown him, crown him
crowns befit the victor's brow.

2 Crown the saviour, angels, crown him!
rich the trophies Jesus brings;
in the seat of power enthrone him
while the vault of heaven rings:
Crown him, crown him,
crown him, crown him,
crown the saviour King of kings.

3 Sinners in derision crowned him,
mocked the dying saviour's claim;
saints and angels crowd around him,
sing his triumph, praise his name:
Crown him, crown him,
crown him, crown him;
spread abroad the victor's fame.

4 Hear the shout as he is greeted,
hear those loud triumphant chords!
Jesus Christ in glory seated
O what joy the sight affords!
Crown him, crown him,
crown him, crown him;
King of kings, and Lord of lords!
