About All Hail the Power of Jesu's Name
"All Hail the Power of Jesu's Name" is one of the most triumphant hymns in the choir's repertoire, a magnificent call to worship that lifts the congregation's eyes toward heaven. Set here to the majestic tune "Diadem," the music builds a sense of royal procession and grand adoration. It is a piece that naturally calls for full voices, inviting everyone from the angels to the earthly congregation to bring forth the royal diadem and crown Christ as Lord.
In the context of the Mass, this hymn is a powerful choice for the Entrance or Recessional, especially on feast days celebrating Christ's kingship or during festive seasons. The verses walk us through the communion of saints—martyrs, the chosen race, and redeemed sinners—all gathering to lay their trophies at His feet. When the choir reaches the final stanza, joining "the everlasting song," the harmony swells to give a glimpse of that sacred, heavenly throng.
