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, my Lord
All the vain things that charm me most,
I sacrifice them to His blood
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?
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
Love so amazing, so divine
demands my soul, my life, my all
on which the Prince of Glory died,
my richest gain I count but loss
and pour contempt on all my pride
Save in the death of Christ, my Lord
All the vain things that charm me most,
I sacrifice them to His blood
Sorrow and love flow mingled down
Did e'er such love and sorrow meet
or thorns compose so rich a crown?
that were an offering far too small
Love so amazing, so divine
demands my soul, my life, my all
Love so amazing, so divine
demands my soul, my life, my all
