199- The Head That Once Was Crowned

Jesus Christ: Love of Christ for Us

1

  • 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.
