When I Survey-Hymn Sing

When I Survey-Hymn Sing
Four verses: Three in Eb; One in F
Verse 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.
Verse 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.
Verse 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?
Verse 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!
Words: Isaac Watts, 1707
Music: Lowell Mason, 1824; based on plainsong
