Hymn 299 – WHEN I survey the wondrous cross | C&S English Hymnary

1. WHEN I survey the wondrous cross On which the Prince of Glory die 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 hand His feet Sorrow and love flow mingled down Did e'er such love and sorrow meet Of thorns compose so rich a crown. 4. Were the whole realm of nature mine That were an offering far too small Love so amazing, so divine Demands my soul, my life, my all AMEN
