When I Survey the Wondrous Cross

Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 2,056 hymnals Topics: Faith and Justification 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 Were the whole realm of nature mine, That were a tribute far too small; Love so amazing, so divine, Demands my soul, my life, my all.

What wondrous love is this, O my soul! What wondrous love is this That caused the Lord of bliss To bear the dreadful curse for my soul, for my soul, To bear the dreadful curse for my soul? 2 When I was sinking down, sinking down, sinking down, When I was sinking down, sinking down. When I was sinking down Beneath God's righteous frown, Christ laid aside his crown for my soul, for my soul, Christ laid aside his crown for my soul. 3 To God and to the Lamb I will sing, I will sing; To God and to the Lamb I will sing; To God and to the Lamb, Who is the great I Am, While millions join the theme, I will sing, I will sing, While millions join the theme, I will sing. 4 And when from death I'm free, I'll sing on, I'll sing on; And when from death I'm free, I'll sing on; And when from death I'm free, I'll sing his love for me, And through eternity I'll sing on, I'll sing on; And through eternity I'll sing on.

Sey unverzagt, o frommer christ

Appears in 12 hymnals Topics: Justification and the Resulting Peace Lyrics: 1 Sey unverzagt, o frommer christ, Der du im creutz und unglück bist, Befiehl Gott deine sachen: In noth und pein Vertrau allein Auf ihn: er wirds wohl machen. 2 Dein unglück kömmt nicht obngefähr, Es rühret von dem Höchsten her, Der hat es so versehen. Drum sey nur still, Und was Gott will, Das laß du nur geschehen. 3 Solt auch der himmel fallen ein, Und die natur grändert seyn, So kan doch Gott nicht hassen, Und auch den mann, Der ihm recht kan Vertrauen, nicht verlassen. 4 Zudem wird deine traurigkeit, ja auch nicht währen allezeit: Gott wird dir freude geben, Wo nicht allhie, Doch dort da sie Soll ewig ob dir schweben. 5 Hab immer einen löwenmuth, Vertraue Gott, es wird noch gut Auf alle trübsal werden; Gott ziehet dich Durchs cruetz su sich Gen himmel von der erden. 6 Der leibe Gott ist so getreue Und fromm, daß er dir stehet bey, Wenn unsall sich erreget, Auch jederman Mehr, als er kan Ertragen, nicht aufleget. 7 Es haben ja zu aller zeit Die heiligen in traurigkeit Und creutz oft müssen schwitzen: Warum willst du Denn immerzu Im rosen-garten sitzen. 8 Bet, hoff, und trau auf deinen Gott, In allem jammer, angst und noth: Laß, wie er will, es gehen. Setz ihm kein ziel, Ist er im spiel; Du wirst noch wunder sehen. 9 Gott Vater, Sohn und Heil'ger Giest, der du ein Gott des trostes heißt, Laß alle troß empfinden, Die traurig seyn, Und hilf allein Das böse überwinden.

Raised again for our Justification

The Father's reconciled face Our joyful souls with rapture trace. 5 Whoe'er shall God's elect condemn? Since Christ that di'd now lives again; Nor earth, nor hell, can e'er remove His saints, his fav'rites, from his love. Scripture: Romans 4:25
