75. Look, ye saints, the sight is glorious

1 Look, ye saints, the sight is glorious,
See the "Man of sorrows" now,
From the fight return victorious,
Ev'ry knee to Him shall bow.

Refrain:
Crown Him! crown Him, angels crown Him!
Crown the Saviour "King of kings."
Crown Him! crown Him, angels crown Him!
Crown the Saviour "King of kings."

2 Crown the Saviour! Angels crown Him,
Rich the trophies Jesus brings,
In the seat of pow'r enthrone Him,
While the vault of heaven rings. [Refrain]

3 Sinners in derision crown'd Him,
Mocking thus the Saviour's claim,
Saints and angels crowd around Him,
Own His title, praise His name. [Refrain]

4 Hark! the bursts of acclamation!
Hark! these loud triumphant chords,
Jesus takes the highest station,
Oh, what joy the sight affords. [Refrain]
