367. Crowned With Honor

1 The head that once was crowned with thorns
Is crowned with glory now;
A royal diadem adorns
The mighty Victor's brow.
A royal diadem adorns
The mighty Victor's brow.

2 The highest place that heav'n affords
Is His by sov'reign right;
The King of Kings, the Lord of Lords,
He reigns in glory bright.
The King of Kings, the 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.
To whom He manifests His love
And grants His name to know.
