When I Survey the Wondrous Cross

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 2,046 hymnals 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 an offering far too small; love so amazing, so divine, demands my soul, my life, my all.

Amazing grace! how sweet the sound

Author: John Newton, 1725-1807; John Rees, 19th cent. Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,502 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Amazing grace! how sweet the sound, that saved a wretch like me! I once was lost but now am found, was blind but now I see. 2 'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear, and grace my fears relieved; how precious did that grace appear the hour I first believed! 3 The Lord has promised good to me, his word my hope secures; he will my shield and portion be as long as life endures. 4 Through many dangers, toils, and snares, I have already come; 'tis grace that brought me safe thus far, and grace will lead me home. 5 When we've been there ten thousand years, bright shining as the sun, we've no less days to sing God's praise than when we'd first begun.

Why Do the Wealthy Wicked Boast?

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 38 hymnals First Line: Why do the wealthy wicked boast Lyrics: 1. Why do the wealthy wicked boast, And grow profanely bold? The meanest portion of the just Excels the sinner’s gold. 2. The wicked borrows of his friends, But ne’er designs to pay; The saint is merciful and lends, Nor turns the poor away. 3. His alms with liberal heart he gives Amongst the sons of need; His memory to long ages lives And blessèd is his seed. 4. His lips abhor to talk profane, To slander or defraud; His ready tongue declares to men What he has learned of God. 5. The law and Gospel of the Lord Deep in his heart abide; Led by the Spirit and the Word, His feet shall never slide. 6. When sinners fall, the righteous stand, Preserved from every snare; They shall possess the promised land And dwell for ever there. Used With Tune: ARLINGTON Text Sources: The Psalms of David, 1719
