                      THE HANDBOOK TO THE LUTHERAN HYMNAL
                 (St. Louis: Concordia Publishing House, 1942)



	1. 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 martyrs of our God,
	Who from His altar call;
	Extol the Stem of Jesse's rod
	And crown Him Lord of all.
	
	3. Ye seed of Israel's chosen race,
	Ye ransomed from the Fall,
	Hail Him who saves you by His grace
	And crown Him Lord of all.
	
	4. Hail Him, ye heirs of David's line,
	Whom David Lord did call,
	The God incarnate, Man divine,
	And crown Him Lord of all.
	
	5. 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.
	
	6. Let every kindred, every tribe,
	On this terrestrial ball
	To Him all majesty ascribe
	And crown Him Lord of all.
	
	7. Oh, that with yonder sacred throng
	We at His feet may fall!
	We'll join the everlasting song
	And crown Him Lord of all.
