<\/p>\n
Crown Him with many crowns
\nThe Lamb upon His throne
\nHark! How the heavenly anthem drowns
\nAll music but its own;
\nAwake my soul and sing
\nOf Him who died for me
\nAnd hail Him as thy matchless King
\nThrough all eternity.<\/p>\n
Chorus:
\nMajesty, Lord of all
\nLet every throne before Him fall
\nThe King of kings, O come adore
\nOur God who reigns forevermore.<\/p>\n
Crown Him Lord of life
\nWho triumphed o’er the grave
\nAnd rose victorious in the strife
\nFor those He came to save;
\nHis glories now we sing
\nWho died and rose on high
\nWho died eternal life to bring
\nAnd lives that death may die.<\/p>\n
Bridge: <\/p>\n As I was researching this song for this piece, I found that the Scriptural reference for this hymn is from Revelation 19:12 (NIV). \u201cHis eyes are like blazing fire, and on his head are many crowns. He has a name written on him that no one knows but he himself.\u201d<\/i><\/p>\n <\/p>\n This verse is from the section describing Christ returning as Warrior-Messiah King. Only our Warrior-Messiah King is able to wear these crowns for He is the King of kings and the Lord of lords.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n What an image! Years ago an artist painted images of the Book of Revelation and set it to Scripture and music. I had the privilege of seeing this presentation at a national Christian convention. Those images have stayed in my mind and heart through these years.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Pat Marvenko Smith, Revelation Illustrated, 1992<\/p><\/div>\n Her image of Jesus in this form was most breath-taking. Wouldn\u2019t you agree? For more of her (Pat Marvenko Smith, Revelation Illustrated, 1992) images, please click here<\/a> to visit her website.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n So today, let\u2019s praise the Warrior-Messiah King as we crown Him with many crowns. For it is only through Him that we have redemption and everlasting life. It is only through Him that we have true freedom.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n If you do not know Jesus as your personal Savior, please don\u2019t hesitate to contact me. I would love to share God\u2019s message of grace with you.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Thank you for stopping by for my third day of the A to Z challenge through April. And as always, I\u2019d love to hear from you!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Grace and peace be yours in abundance,<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Donna<\/p>\n
\nAll hail, Redeemer, hail
\nFor He has died for me
\nHis praise and glory shall not fail
\nThroughout eternity.[i]<\/a><\/p>\n![\"kinglord\"](\"https:\/\/fullmeasureofjoy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/kinglord-213x300.jpg\")
