When I Survey the Wondrous Cross

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2,057 hymnals 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 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 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.

Amidst Us Our Beloved Stands

Author: Charles H. Spurgeon, 1834-1892 Appears in 28 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Amidst us our Belovèd stands, And bids us view His piercèd hands; Points to the wounded feet and side, Blest emblems of the Crucified. 2 What food luxurious loads the board, When, at His table, sits the Lord! The wine how rich, the bread how sweet, When Jesus deigns the guests to meet! 3 If now, with eyes defiled and dim, We see the signs, but see not Him; O, may His love the scales displace, And bid us see Him face to face! 4 Thou glorious Bridegroom of our hearts, Thy present smile a heaven imparts! O, lift the veil, if veil there be, Let every saint Thy glory see! Amen. Topics: The Church The Lord's Supper Used With Tune: HAMBURG

O thou that hear'st when sinners cry

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 344 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O thou that hear'st when sinners cry, Though all my crimes before thee lie, Behold them not with angry look, But blot their mem'ry from thy book. 2 Create my nature pure within, And form my soul averse to sin; Let thy good Spirit ne'er depart, Not hide thy presence from my heart. 3 I cannot live without thy light, Cast out and banished from thy sight; Thy holy joys, my God, restore, And guard me, that I fall no more. 4 A broken heart, my God, my King, Is all the sacrifice I bring; The God of grace will ne'er despise A broken heart for sacrifice. 5 My soul lies humbled in the dust, And owns thy dreadful sentence just: Look down, O Lord, with pitying eye, And save the soul condemned to die. 6 Then will I teach the world thy ways; Sinners shall learn thy sovereign grace; I'll lead them to my Saviour's blood, And they shall praise a pard'ning God. Amen. Topics: Christian Life Repentance; Forgiveness of Sins; Heart Contrite; Heart Pure; Longing for Christ and God Scripture: Psalm 51 Used With Tune: HAMBURG

Bondage and death the cup contains

Author: Lucius M. Sargent Appears in 20 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Bondage and death the cup contains, Dash to the earth the poisoned bowl! Softer than silk are iron chains, Compared with those that chafe the soul. 2 Hosannas, Lord, to Thee we sing, Whose power the giant fiend obeys; What countless thousands tribute bring, For happier home and brighter days! 3 Thou wilt not break the bruised reed, Nor leave the broken heart unbound; The wife regains a husband freed! The orphan clasps a father found! 4 Spare, Lord, the thoughtless, guide the blind, Till man no more shall deem it just To live, by forging chains to bind His weaker brother in the dust.
