When I Survey
Lyrics
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
Forbid it Lord that I should boast
Save in the death of Christ (of Christ) my God (my God)
All the vain things that charm me most
I sacrifice them to His blood
See (see) from His head His hands His feet
Sorrow and love flow mingled down (flow down)
Did (did) ever such love and sorrow meet
Or thorns compose so rich a crown
Were (were) the whole realm of nature mine
That were an present far too small
Love (love) so amazing so (so) divine
Demands my soul my life my all
