When I Survey the Wondrous Cross
Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 2,044 hymnals Topics: The Christian Life Aspiration and Consecration; Christ Suffering; Communion; Cross 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. Used With Tune: [When I survey the wondrous cross]

Faint not, O faltering feet!
Press onward to that blest estate,
In righteousness complete.

The transient pain and strife;

"Take Up Your Cross," the Savior Said
Author: Charles W. Everest Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 301 hymnals Topics: The Christian Life Tribulation and Suffering; Christian Service; Crown of Life; Self-Denial Lyrics: 1 "Take up your cross," the Savior said,
"if you would my disciple be;
take up your cross with willing heart,
and humbly follow after me."
2 Take up your cross; let not its weight
fill your weak soul with vain alarm;
his strength shall bear your spirit up,
and brace your heart and nerve your arm.
3 Take up your cross; nor heed the shame,
and let your foolish pride be still;
your Lord refused not e'en to die
upon a cross, on Calv'ry's hill.
4 Take up your cross, then, in his strength,
and calmly sin's wild deluge brave;
'twill guide you to a better home,
it points to glory o'er the grave.
5 Take up your cross, and follow on,
nor think till death to lay it down;
for only he who bears the cross
may hope to wear the glorious crown.
Scripture: Matthew 16:24 Used With Tune: QUEBEC

to God my voice imploring prays;
before his face my grief I show
and tell my trouble and my woe.
2 When gloom and sorrow compass me,
the path I take is known to thee,
and all the toils that foes do lay
to snare thy servant in his way.
3 O Lord, my Savior, now to thee,
without a hope besides, I flee,
to thee, my shelter from the strife,
my portion in the land of life.
4 Be thou my help when troubles throng,
for I am weak and foes are strong;
my captive soul from prison bring,
and thankful praises I will sing.

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,997 hymnals Topics: Perseverance; The Christian Life Christian Warfare; Christians Triumph of; Resurrection of Believers; Tribulation and Suffering Lyrics: 1 Am I a soldier of the cross,
a foll'wer of the Lamb,
and shall I fear to own his cause,
or blush to speak his name?
2 Must I be carried to the skies
on flow'ry beds of ease,
while others fought to win the prize,
and sailed through bloody seas?
3 Are there no foes for me to face?
Must I not stem the flood?
Is this vile world a friend to grace,
to help me on to God?
4 Sure I must fight if I would reign:
increase my courage, Lord;
I'll bear the toil, endure the pain,
supported by thy Word.
5 Thy saints, in all this glorious war,
shall conquer, though they die;
they view the triumph from afar,
and seize it with their eye.
6 When that illustrious day shall rise,
and all thine armies shine
in robes of vict'ry through the skies,
the glory shall be thine.
Scripture: 2 Timothy 2:3 Used With Tune: MARLOW
Am I a Soldier of the Cross
