"Crowns Down" by Norm Strauss, Performed by Lindell Cooley

This is from the 1999 album "Desperate for You". Mr. Cooley has modified the lyrics slightly from the original. The original lyrics are as follows:

CROWNS DOWN
by Norm Strauss

Lord of glory, Lord of might,
We lay our crowns down

No flesh will glory in your sight,
We lay our crowns down

Every government,
Every land,
They'll lay their crowns down

There is none that is higher than,
You Lord
We lay our crowns down

We'll seek no earthly title
Let our names in Him be found
We turn our backs on every idol
We lay our crowns down

Perfect Lamb,
Perfect Son,
We lay our lives down

You came to earth,
A blameless one,
We lay our lives down

You were sacrificed
To set us free,
We lay our lives down

You were bruised
For our iniquity,
We lay our lives down

We'll seek no earthly title
Let our names in Him be found
We turn our backs on every idol
We lay our crowns down

We'll seek no earthly title
Let our names in Him be found
We turn our backs on every idol
We lay our crowns down
