Crown Him!

"Crown Him!" is a powerful choral arrangement by David T. Clydesdale, weaving together Jack W. Hayford's modern worship chorus "Majesty" with the classic hymn "Crown Him with Many Crowns." It starts with a grand, sweeping declaration of Christ's royal authority, setting a tone of absolute reverence. When a choir takes this up, especially during Christ the King Sunday or Eastertide, the transition from the contemporary praise of "Majesty" into the driving, traditional verses of the hymn creates a massive surge of energy in the church.

The arrangement is built to lift the congregation's spirit. As the voices move through the verses—singing of the Lord of love, life, and heaven—the harmony swells, reflecting the triumph over the grave and the glory of the risen Lord. The final return to "Majesty" at the end brings the piece to a unified, triumphant close. It is a fantastic choice for a recessional or a major feast day, giving the choir a chance to sing with full, unrestrained joy while drawing everyone into the worship of the King of Kings.
