heavenly places, There with thee in glory stand; Jesus reigns, adored by angels; Man with God is on the throne; Mighty Lord! in thine ascension, We by faith behold our own. Christopher Wordsworth, 1862. 154 Coronation. C.M. _Crown Him Lord of All._ (336) All hail the power of Jesus' name, Let angels prostrate fall; Bring forth the royal diadem, And crown him Lord of all. 2 Crown him, ye morning stars of light, Who fixed this earthly ball; Now hail the strength of Israel's might, And crown him Lord of all. 3 Ye chosen seed of Israel's race, Ye ransomed from the fall, Hail him who saves you by his grace, And crown him Lord of all. 4 Sinners, whose love can ne'er forget The wormwood and the gall; Go, spread your trophies at his feet, And crown him Lord of all. 5 Let every kindred, every tribe On this terrestrial ball, To him all majesty ascribe, And crown him Lord of all. 6 O that with yonder sacred throng We at his feet may fall! We'll join the everlasting song, And crown him Lord of all. Edward Perronet, _alt._ 1780. 155 Elizabethtown. C.M. _The Sympathy of Jesus._ (338) Come, let us join in songs of praise To our ascended Priest; He entered heaven with all our names Engraven on his breast. 2 Below he washed our guilt away, By his atoning blood; Now he appears before the throne, And pleads our cause with God. 3 Clothed with our nature still, he knows The weakness of our frame, And how to shield us from the foes Which he himself o'ercame. 4 Oh! may we ne'er forget his grace, Nor blush to wear his name; Still may our hearts hold fast his faith, Our mouths his praise proclaim. Anon. 1818. 156 Elizabethtown. C.M. _Perfect Through Suffering._ (337) The head, that once was crowned with thorns, Is crowned with glory now; A royal diadem adorns The mighty Victor's brow. 2 The highest place that heaven affords Is his--is his by right; "The King of kings, and Lord of lords," And heaven's eternal Light. 3 The joy of all who dwell above, The joy of all below, To whom he manifests his love, And grants his name to know. 4 To them the cross, with all its shame, With all its grace, is given; Their name--an everlasting name; Their joy--the joy of heaven. 5 They suffer with their Lord below, They reign with him above; Their profit and their joy--to know
