“Satan’s Jewel Crown” is a country gospel song written by composer Edgar Eden. It appeared on the Louvin Brothers' gospel album Satan is Real in 1959, and the song is characteristic of the fire and brimstone theology of that record. The Harris version is significantly slower than the Louvin Brothers...
[Verse 1]
Now if I were a queen and a ruler of nations
With diamonds and jewels profound
Well, I'd rather know that I had salvation
Than to know my reward would be Satan's jewel crown
[Chorus]
Satan's jewel crown, I've worn it so long
But God for my soul has reached down
His love set me free, He made me His own
And helped me cast off Satan's jewel crown
[Verse 2]
Oh, this life that I live, so sinful and evil
Drinking and running around
All the things that I do for the love of the Devil
I know my reward will be Satan's jewel crown
[Chorus]
Satan's jewel crown, I've worn it so long
But God for my soul has reached down
His love set me free, He made me His own
And helped me cast off Satan's jewel crown
