When I Survey the Wondrous Cross
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1,989 hymnals Topics: Boasting Lyrics: 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 through 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.
Scripture: Matthew 27:29 Used With Tune: HAMBURG

Father, Long Before Creation
Author: Francis P. Jones Meter: 8.7.8.7.4.7 Appears in 9 hymnals Topics: Boasting Lyrics: 1 Father, long before creation
you had chosen us in love,
and that love so deep, so moving,
draws us close to Christ above.
Still it keeps us
firmly fixed in Christ alone.
2 Though the world may change its fashion,
you will still remain the same;
your compassion and your covenant
through all ages will remain.
Your own children
shall forever praise your name.
3 Your compassion is our story,
is our boasting all the day;
mercy free and never failing
moves our will, directs our way.
God so loved us
that he gave his only Son.
4 Loving Father, now before you
we shall ever sing your grace,
and our song will sound forever
when we see you face to face,
giving glory
to the Lamb upon the throne. Scripture: John 3:16 Used With Tune: CORONAE Text Sources: Chinese, ca. 1951

But few among the carnal Wise
Appears in 16 hymnals Topics: Boasting excluded Lyrics: 1 But few among the carnal Wise,
But few of noble Race,
Obtain the Favour of thine Eyes,
Almighty King of Grace.
2 He takes the Men of meanest Name,
For Sons and Heirs of God;
And thus he pours abundant Shame
On honorable Blood.
3 He calls the Fool, and makes him know
The Myst'ries of his Grace,
To bring aspiring Wisdom low,
And all its Pride abase.
4 Nature has all its Glories lost,
When brought before his Throne;
No Flesh shall in his Presence boast,
But in the Lord alone.
Scripture: 1 Corinthians 1:26-31
But few among the carnal Wise
