  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.
  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 hands, his feet,
    Sorrow and love flow mingled down!
    Did e'er such love and sorrow meet,
    Or thorns compose so rich a crown?
  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.
    Amen

  1. In the cross of Christ I glory,
    Tow'ring o'er the wrecks of time;
    All the light of sacred story
    Gathers round its head sublime.
  2. When the woes of life o'er-take me,
    Hopes deceive, and fears annoy,
    Never shall the cross forsake me;
    Lo! it glows with peace and joy.
  3. When the sun of bliss is beaming
    Light and love up on my way,
    From the cross the radiance streaming
    Adds new lustre to the day.
  4. Bane and blessing, pain and pleasure,
    By the cross are sanctified;
    Peace is there that knows no measure,
    Joys that thro' all time abide.
    Amen.
