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 God! 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 a present far too small; Love so amazing, so divine, Demands my soul, my life, my all.
It makes me very said that so many people die in my place 💔 but God never leads anyone to do something that is different than from what he has told us in the New Testament 🙏
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 God!
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 a present far too small;
Love so amazing, so divine,
Demands my soul, my life, my all.
BEAUTIFUL
Praise the Lord
This makes my soul feel so good. Just what I needed. Jesus my Lord. Thanks for posting
Love that precious hymn what a blessing
The great hymn of the faith which Fanny Crosby walk the aisle on and receive Christ as their Saviour.
It makes me very said that so many people die in my place 💔 but God never leads anyone to do something that is different than from what he has told us in the New Testament 🙏
Beautiful song about Christ's suffering and death on the cross.
Isaac Watts wrote this great hymn.
Traditional. I can also sing the alternate tune.
