112. Victorious Savior

1 Crowns of glory ever bright,
Rest upon the Conq'ror's head.

Chorus:
Crowns of glory are his right,
His "who liveth and was dead."
He subdued the powers of hell,
In the fight he stood alone;
All his foes before, him fell,
By his single arm o'erthrown.

2 His the battle, his the toil,
His the honors of the day;

Chorus:
His the glory, his the spoil--
Jesus bears them all away!
Now proclaim his deeds afar;
Fill the world with his renown;
He alone the victor's car;
His the everlasting crown.
