Lyrics

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

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

Oh the wonderful cross

Oh the wonderful cross

Bids me come and die and find

That I may truly live

Oh the wonderful cross

Oh the wonderful cross

All who gather here

By grace draw near

And bless your name

Were the whole relem of nature mine

That were and off'ring far too small

Love so amazing so divine

Demands my soul my life my all

Oh the wonderful cross

Oh the wonderful cross

Bids me come and die and find

That I may truly live

Oh the wonderful cross

Oh the wonderful cross

All who gather here

By grace draw near

And bless your name
