Crowns of Glory

Thomas Kelly • English

Primary Scripture: Revelation 1:18

Verse 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.

Verse 2

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

Chorus 2

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.
