Raw Footage: Oasis Chorale in Concert at Eastminster Church 2018

Words by Edward Perronet; altered by John RipponMusic by Oliver HoldenWritten Tune CORONATION

All hail the power of Jesus' name!
Let angels prostrate fall;
bring forth the royal diadem,
and crown him Lord of all.
Bring forth the royal diadem,
and crown him Lord of all.

Crown him, ye martyrs of your God,
who from his altar call;
extol the Stem of Jesse's rod,
and crown him Lord of all.
Extol the Stem of Jesse's rod,
and crown him Lord of all.

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.
Hail him who saves you by his grace,
and crown him Lord of all.

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.
Go spread your trophies at his feet,
and crown him Lord of all.

Let every kindred, every tribe,
on this terrestrial ball,
to him all majesty ascribe,
and crown him Lord of all.
To him all majesty ascribe,
and crown him Lord of all.

O that with yonder sacred throng
we at his feet may fall;
we'll join the everlasting song,
and crown him Lord of all.
We'll join the everlasting song,
and crown him Lord of all.

Story Behind the Song

Edward Perronet first published the text in 1779 in the Gospel Magazine. John Rippon later revised and popularized the hymn in his influential Baptist Selection of Hymns in 1787. In North America it became especially associated with Oliver Holden's tune CORONATION, published in 1793, though the text is also sung to MILES LANE and DIADEM.
