Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Voices Together #322 (2020) 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 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 an off’ring far too small.
Love so amazing, so divine,
demands my soul, my life, my all. Topics: Blood of Christ; Commitment; Jesus Christ Death of Scripture: Matthew 27:27-54 Tune Title: SENZENINA
