“Crown him with many crowns,
The Lamb upon his throne;
Hark! how the heavenly anthem drowns
All music but its own:
Awake, my soul, and sing
Of him who died for thee,
And hail him as thy matchless king
Through all eternity.“
Crown Him With Many Crowns is the latest handbell arrangement from Choraegus. The lyrics were written in 1851, and set to the tune DIADEMATA by George Elvey. The hymn is popular for Easter and general worship.
More information about Crown Him with Many Crowns
Crown Him with Many Crowns is for 3-5 octaves of handbells, Level 2+. There’s a little “challenge section” at the beginning and at the end, and the rest of the piece is quite straightforward. Sheet music for this arrangement is available to purchase and download from Choraegus. You can either purchase an individual copy (useful for massed ringing events, or for preview), or purchase the full choir license. Purchase of the full choir license gives you our no-fuss permission to print up to 15 copies for your group.
Your purchase of the full-choir license also gives permission for you to perform, broadcast and live-stream this piece as part of a concert or worship service without the need for any additional license or fee, although we ask you to credit the composer (Larry Sue) and publisher (Choraegus) in any printed media such as concert programs, and online (in video descriptions). See our licensing agreement for full details. We appreciate your help in spreading the word about Choraegus handbell music.
