Lyrics: 1 All hail the pow'r of Jesus' name! let angels prostrate fall; let angels prostrate fall; bring forth the royal diadem, and crown him, crown him, crown him, crown him, and crown him Lord of all. 2 Crown him, all martyrs of your God, who from his altar call; praise him whose way of pain you trod, and crown him, crown him, crown him, crown him, and crown him Lord of all. 3 O prophets faithful to his word, in matters get and small, who made his voice of justice heard, and crown him, crown him, crown him, crown him, now crown him Lord of all. 4 All sinners, now redeemed by grace, who heard your Savior's call, now robed in light before his face, and crown him, crown him, crown him, crown him, O crown him Lord of all. 5 Let every tribe and every race who heard the freedom call, in liberation, see Christ's face and crown him, crown him, crown him, crown him, and crown him Lord of all. 6 Let every people, every tongue to him their heart enthralling: lift high the universal song and crown him, crown him, crown him, crown him, and crown him Lord of all.

Disposer supreme

Author: J. b. de Santeuil, 1630-1697; Isaac Williams, 1802-1865 Hymnal: Complete Anglican Hymns Old and New #149 (2000) Meter: 10.10.11.11 Topics: The Communion of Saints First Line: Disposer supreme, and Judge of the earth Lyrics: 1 Disposer supreme, and Judge of the earth, thou choosest for thine the meek and the poor; to frail earthen vessels, and things of no worth, entrusting thy riches which ay shall endure. 2 Those vessels are frail, though full of thy light, and many, once made ,are broken and gone; thence brightly appeareth thy truth in its might, as through the clouds riven the lightnings have shone. 3 Like clouds are they borne to do thy great will, and swift as the winds about the world go: the Word with his wisdom their spirits doth fill; they thunder, they lighten, the waters o'erflow. 4 Their sound goeth forth, 'Christ Jesus the Lord!' then Satan doth fear, his citadels fall; as when the dread trumpets went forth at thy word, and one long blast shattered the Canaanite's wall. 5 O loud be their cry, and stirring their sound, to rouse us, O Lord, from slumber of sin: the lights thou hast kindled in darkness around, O may they awaken our spirits within. 6 All honour and praise, dominion and might, to God, Three in One, eternally be, who round us hath shed his own marvellous light, and called us from darkness his glory to see.

Lo! what a cloud of witnesses

Hymnal: Hymnal #183 (1871) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Communion of Saints Lyrics: 1 Lo! what a cloud of witnesses Encompass us around! Men once like us with suffering tried, But now with glory crown'd. 2 Let us, with zeal like theirs inspired, Strive in the Christian race; And, freed, from every weight of sin, Their holy footsteps trace. 3 Behold a Witness nobler still, Who trod affliction's path-- Jesus, the Author, Finisher, Rewarder of our faith. 4 He, for the joy before Him set, And moved by pitying love, Endured the Cross, despised the shame, And now He reigns above. 5 Thither, forgetting things behind, Press we to God's right hand; There, with the Saviour and His saints, Triumphantly to stand.
