Nassau County N.Y. Catholic: Bridges

Lord

As the internet already provides many encouraging spiritual guides and discouraging contentious forums, I intend to offer neither.

Hymn, Crown Him with Many Crowns

Today, the Feast of Christ the King, the pre-recorded Mass from the Passionist Fathers, had as recessional the hymn "Crown Him with Many Crowns, the Lamb upon his Throne." The hymnist is Matthew Bridges, 1800-1894, who penned this hymn after he embraced the Roman Catholic church around 1846.
