is crowned with glory now:
a royal diadem adorns
the mighty Victor's brow.

is his, is his by right,
the King of kings, and Lord of lords,
and heaven's eternal Light;
3 The joy of all who dwell above,
the joy of all below,
to whom he manifests his love,
and grants his name to know.
4 To them the cross, with all its shame,
with all its grace, is given:
their name, an everlasting name,
their joy, the joy of heaven.
5 They suffer with their Lord below,
they reign with him above;
their profit and their joy to know
the mystery of his love.
6 The cross he bore is life and health,
though shame and death to him;
his people's hope, his people's wealth,
their everlasting theme. Scripture: Philippians 2:9-11 Languages: English Tune Title: ST MAGNUS

to make our life and loving new,
so celebrate with him today
and drink the joy he offers you
that makes the simple moment shine
and changes water into wine.
3 And Jesus died to live again
so praise the love that, come what may,
can bring the dawn and clear the skies,
and waits to wipe all tears away;
and let us hope for what shall be
believing where we cannot see.
4 Then spread the table, clear the hall
and celebrate till day is done;
let peace go deep between us all
and joy be shared by everyone:
laugh and make merry with your friends
and praise the love that never ends! Scripture: Genesis 1:26-27 Languages: English Tune Title: SUSSEX CAROL
