All Hail the Power of Jesus' Name
Hymn Lyrics

All Hail the Power of Jesus' Name was a Christian hymn written in the eighteenth century. The lyrics was penned by Edward Perronet(1726-1792), son of an Anglican priest.

It was written in 1779 and the first stanza was published anonymously in the November, 1779 issue of The Gospel Magazine.

This great Christian hymn is so widely sung in churches throughout the world that it became known as the 'National Anthem of Christianity'.

There are three tunes associated with this hymn. Namely, Miles Lane by William Shrubsole, Coronation by Oliver Holden and Diadem by John Ellor.

Stanza 1:

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.



Stanza 2:

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.



Stanza 3:

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.





Stanza 4:

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.



Stanza 5:

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.



Stanza 6:

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.

Let's join the everlasting song and crown Jesus Christ Lord of all!
