  1. When I Survey

  2. 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

  3. 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

  4. 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?

  5. 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
