All Hail the Power of Jesus' Name
Words by Edward Perronet, Music by Oliver Holden - 1779
(last verse added by John Rippon - 1787)
Matthew 28:18
"And Jesus came and spake unto them saying,
All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth."
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.
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.
Let ev'ry kindred, ev'ry 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,
Join in the everlasting song, and crown Him Lord of all,
Join in the everlasting song, and crown Him Lord of all!
