The Wonderful Cross
The Wonderful Cross
When I survey the wondrous crossOn which the Prince of Glory diedMy Richest gain I count but lossAnd pour contempt on all my pride
See from His head His hands His feetSorrow and love flow mingled downDid e'er such love and sorrow meetOr thorns compose so rich a crown
Oh the wonderful cross (2x)Bids me come and die and findthat I may truly live
Oh the wonderful cross (2x)All who gather here by gracedraw near and bless your name
Were the whole realm of nature mineThat were an off'ring far too smallLove so amazing so divineDemands my soul, my life, my all
Oh the wonderful cross (2x)Bids me come and die and findthat I may truly live
Oh the wonderful cross (2x)All who gather here by gracedraw near and bless your name
Love so amazing, so divineDemands my soul, my life, my all
and the beauty and the shamein the glory of His nameOh the wonderful cross
Oh the wonderful cross (2x)Bids me come and die and findthat I may truly live
Oh the wonderful cross (2x)All who gather here by gracedraw near and bless your name
