Hymn 7

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1,995 hymnals Matching Instances: 1,986 First Line: When I survey the wondrous cross Lyrics: When I survey the wondrous cross On which the Prince of glory died, My richest gain I count but loss, And pour contempt on all my pride. Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast, Save in the death of Christ my God! All the vain things that charm me most, I sacrifice them to his blood. See from his head, his hands, his feet, Sorrow and love flow mingled down! Did e'er such love and sorrow meet, Or thorns compose so rich a crown! [His dying crimson, like a robe, Spreads o'er his body on the tree: Then am I dead to all the globe, And all the globe is dead to me.] Were the whole realm of nature mine, That were a present far too small; Love so amazing, so divine, Demands my soul, my life, my all. Scripture: Galatians 6:14

A follower of the Lamb, And shall I fear to own His cause, Or blush to speak His name? Must I be carried to the skies On flowery beds of ease, While others fought to win the prize, And sailed through bloody seas? Are there no foes for me to fight? Must I not stem the flood? Is this dark world a friend to grace, To help me on to God? Sure, I must fight if I would reign Increase my courage, Lord. I'll bear the toil, endure the pain, Supported by Thy word. Thy saints, in all this glorious war Shall conquer, though they die; They see the triumph from afar By faith's discerning eye. When that illustrious day shall rise And all Thine armies shine In robes of victory through the skies, The glory shall be Thine.

There Persia, glorious to behold, There India shines in eastern gold; And barb'rous nations at his word Submit, and bow, and own their Lord.] For him shall endless prayer be made, And praises throng to crown his head; His name like sweet perfume shall rise With every morning sacrifice. People and realms of every tongue Dwell on his love with sweetest song; And infant voices shall proclaim Their early blessings on his name. Blessings abound where'er he reigns, The pris'ner leaps to lose his chains; The weary find eternal rest, And all the sons of want are blest.

Let every creature rise and bring Peculiar honors to our King; Angels descend with songs again, And earth repeat the long Amen.] Topics: Christ exalted to the kingdom; Exaltation of Christ to the kingdom; Gentiles given to Christ; Gentiles church; Christ his kingdom among the Gentiles Scripture: Psalm 72
