(I'll try to split out the harmonies.  I just made them up when I recorded this!)
 
He is Lord, He is Lord.
He has risen from the dead
And He is Lord.
Ev’ry knee shall bow,
Ev’ry tongue confess
That Jesus Christ is Lord.

He is King, He is King.
He has risen from the dead
And He is King.
Ev’ry knee shall bow,
Ev’ry tongue confess

Communion 2: 321 Crown him with many crowns

Crown him with many crowns, 
the Lamb upon his throne.
Hark! How the heavenly anthem drowns 
all music but its own.
Awake, my soul, and sing of him 
who died for thee,
and hail him as thy matchless King 
through all eternity.

Crown him the virgin's Son, 
the God incarnate born,
whose arm those crimson trophies won 
which now His brow adorn;
fruit of the mystic rose, 
as of that rose the stem;
the root whence mercy ever flows, 
the Babe of Bethlehem.

Crown him the Lord of love.
Behold his hands and side,
Rich wounds, yet visible above,
In beauty glorified.
No angels in the sky
Can fully bear that sight,
But downward bend their burning eyes
At mysteries so bright.

Crown him the Lord of peace, 
whose power a sceptre sways
from pole to pole, that wars may cease, 
and all be prayer and praise.
his reign shall know no end, 
and round his pierced feet
fair flowers of paradise extend
their fragrance ever sweet.

Crown him the Lord of Heaven, 
one with the Father known,
and the blest Spirit through him given 
from yonder triune throne:
all hail, Redeemer, hail,
for thou hast died for me;
thy praise shall never, never fail
throughout eternity.

Recessional: 287 Thine be the glory

1. Thine be the glory, risen, conquering Son;
endless is the victory, thou o'er death hast won;
angels in bright raiment rolled the stone away,
kept the folded grave clothes where Thy body lay.

Refrain:
Thine be the glory, risen conquering Son,
Endless is the vict'ry, thou o'er death hast won.

2. Lo, Jesus meets us, risen from the tomb;
lovingly he greets us, scatters fear and gloom;
let the Church with gladness, hymns of triumph sing;
for her Lord is living, death has lost its sting. (Refrain)

3. No more we doubt thee, glorious Prince of life;
life is naught without thee; aid us in our strife;
make us more than conquerors, through Thy deathless love:
bring us safe through Jordan to Thy home above. (Refrain)

In bread we bring you Lord, our body's' labour
In wine we offer you our spirit's grief.
We do not ask you, Lord, who is my neighbour,
But stand united now, one in belief.

O we have gladly heard your word, your holy word
And now in answer, Lord, our gifts we bring.
Our selfish hearts make true, our failing faith renew,
Our life belongs to you, our Lord and King.

The bread we offer you is blessed and broken,
And it becomes for us our spirit’s food.
Over the cup we bring your Word is spoken;
Make it your gift to us your healing blood.

Take all that daily toil plants in our heart’s poor soil,
Take all we start and spoil, each hopeful dream.
The chances we have missed, the graces we resist,
Lord, in thy Eucharist, take and redeem.
