My grandson, Nathan, requested an arrangement of Crown Him With Many Crowns to learn over the summer.
I tried to keep the arrangement true to his level with the exception of a few spots. He will soon be in book 2B of the Faber piano book series.
You’ll note the suggested fingering as needed to prevent a lot of hand acrobats 😉
This particular piano arrangement consists of one verse and chorus…making it the perfect length for an offertory at a small church.
I absolutely LOVE the words to this Christmas carol, Who is He in Yonder Stall? The last verse into the chorus is my favorite part as seen below.
A big thanks to Mary Lynn Van Gelderen, one of my special piano friends, who helped me with the editing process. Mary Lynn said the arrangement fit her hands perfectly 🙂
I visualized the lyrics of the first and last verse when creating this arrangement.
Verse One:
Who is He in yonder stall
At Whose feet the shepherds fall?
Who is He in deep distress,
Fasting in the wilderness?
Last verse:
Who is He that from the grave
Comes to heal and help and save?
Who is He that from His throne
Rules through all the world alone?
Refrain:
’Tis the Lord! O wondrous story!
’Tis the Lord! the King of glory!
At His feet we humbly fall,
Crown Him! crown Him, Lord of all!
