When I Survey the Wondrous Cross

Author: Rev. Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #354 (1934) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 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. 2 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 through His blood. 3 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? 4 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. Topics: Blood of Christ; Communion Service; Consecration; Cross of Christ; Death of Christ, Burial, and Descent Into Hell; Forsaking the World; Love of Christ; Renunciation; Sufferings of Christ Languages: English Tune Title: HAMBURG
