When I Survey the Wondrous Cross

Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1,996 hymnals Scripture: Romans 12:1 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 tribute far too small; love so amazing, so divine, demands my soul, my life, my all.

What a privilege to carry everything to God in prayer! O what peace we often forfeit; O what needless pain we bear, all because we do not carry everything to God in prayer! 2 Have we trials and temptations? Is there trouble anywhere? We should never be discouraged; take it to the Lord in prayer! Can we find a friend so faithful who will all our sorrows share? Jesus knows our every weakness; take it to the Lord in prayer! 3 Are we weak and heavy laden, cumbered with a load of care? Precious Savior, still our refuge; take it to the Lord in prayer! Do thy friends despise, forsake thee? Take it to the Lord in prayer! In his arms he’ll take and shield thee; thou wilt find a solace there.

Where Cross the Crowded Ways of Life

Author: Frank Mason North Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 369 hymnals Scripture: Romans 12:15 Lyrics: 1 Where cross the crowded ways of life, where sound the cries of race and clan, above the noise of selfish strife we hear your voice, O Son of Man! 2 In haunts of wretchedness and need, on shadowed thresholds fraught with fears, from paths where hide the lures of greed we catch the vision of Thy tears. 3 The cup of water given for you still holds the freshness of your grace; yet long these multitudes to view the strong compassion of your face. 4 O Master, from the mountainside, make haste to heal these hearts of pain; among these restless throngs abide, O tread the city’s streets again; 5 Till all the world shall learn your love and follow where your feet have trod: till glorious from your heaven above shall come the city of our God.
