When I survey the wondrous cross

Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Common Praise #127a (2000) 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 cross 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 am I dead to all the globe, and all the globe is dead to me. 5 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.
