All Hail the Power of Jesus’ Name G3 570

This is a C18 text by Edward Perronet for Christ the King. It is set to DIADEM. Note that there is more than one tune called DIADEM to which these words have been set – this is one from the Primitive Baptist Hymn and Tune Book as harmonised by Richard Proulx. This one appears to be the least used by far.

All hail the pow’r of Jesus’ Name!
Let angels prostrate fall;
Bring forth the royal diadem,
And crown Him Lord of all,
And crown him Lord of all,
And crown him Lord of all.
Bring forth the royal diadem,
And crown him Lord of all!

Crown him, you martyrs of our God
Who from his altar call:
Extol the stem of Jesse’s rod,
And crown him Lord of all,
And crown him Lord of all,
And crown him Lord of all.
Extol the stem of Jesse’s Rod,
And crown him Lord of all!

O seed of Israel’s chosen race,
Now ransomed from the fall,
Hail him Who saves you by His grace,
And crown Him Lord of all.
And crown him Lord of all,
And crown him Lord of all.
Hail him Who saves you by His grace,
And crown Him Lord of all!

Oh, that with yonder sacred throng
We at His feet may fall!
We’ll join the everlasting song,
And crown Him Lord of all.
And crown him Lord of all,
And crown him Lord of all.
We’ll join the everlasting song,
And crown Him Lord of all!
