The head that once was crowned with thorns

Author: Thomas Kelly, 1769-1854 Appears in 532 hymnals Topics: Suffering Human Lyrics: 1 The head that once was crowned with thorns Is crowned with glory now; A royal diadem adorns The mighty Victor's brow. 2 The highest place that heaven affords 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 to them is life and health, Though shame and death to Him; His people's hope, His people's wealth, Their everlasting theme.

Er führet mich auf rechter bahn, So laß ich mich begnügen An seiner huld Und hab' geduld, Er wird mein unglück wenden, Es steht in seinen händen. 3 Was Gott thut, das ist wohl gethan; Er wird mich wohl bedenken, Er, als mein arzt und helfers-mann, Wird mir nicht gift einschenken Für arzeney: Gott ist getreu, Drum will ich auf ihn bauen, Und seiner güte trauen. 4 Was Gott thut, das ist wohl gethan; Er ist mein licht, mein leben, Der mir nichts böses gönnen kan; Ich will mich ihm ergeben In freud und leid, Es kommt die zeit, Da öffentlich erscheinet, Wie treulich er es meynet. 5 Was Gott thut, das ist wohl gethan; Muß ich den kelch gleich schmecken, Der bitter ist nach meinem wahn, Laß ich mich doch nicht schrecken, Weil doch zuletzt Ich werd ergetzt Mit süßem trost im herzen, Da weichen alle schmerzen. 6 Was Gott thut, das ist wohl gethan! Dabey will ich verbleiben, Es mag mich auf die rauhe bahn, Noth, tod und elend treiben; So wird Gott mich Ganz väterlich In seinen armen halten, Drum laß ich ihn nur walten.

Must I not stem the flood? Is this vile world a friend to grace, to help me on to God? 4 Sure I must fight if I would reign: increase my courage, Lord; I'll bear the toil, endure the pain, supported by thy Word. 5 Thy saints, in all this glorious war, shall conquer, though they die; they view the triumph from afar, and seize it with their eye. 6 When that illustrious day shall rise, and all thine armies shine in robes of vict'ry through the skies, the glory shall be thine.
