When I Survey the Wondrous Cross

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Hallowed Hymns, New and Old #217 (1908) Topics: Cross and Crown 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 to 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 His dying crimson, like a robe, Spreads o'er His body on the tree; Then I am dead to all the globe, And all the globe is dead to me. 5 Were the whole ream of nature mine, That were a present far too small; Love so amazing, so divine, Demands my soul, my life, my all.
