When I Survey the Wondrous Cross

Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 1,996 hymnals Topics: Church Festivals Passion and Easter 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 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 tribute far too small; Love so amazing, so divine, Demands my soul, my life, my all.

Who is this chosen One? 'Tis Jesus Christ, the Son. The Lord of hosts, 'tis He Who wins the victory In ev'ry field of battle. 3 And were the world with devils filled, All watching to devour us, Our souls to fear we need not yield, They cannot overpower us; Their dreaded prince no more Can harm us as of yore; His rage we can endure; For lo! his doom is sure, A word shall overthrow him.

'Tis finished, all is finished, their fight with death and sin. Fling open wide the golden gates and let the victors in! 2 What rush of halleluias fills all the earth and sky! What ringing of a thousand harps bespeaks the triumph nigh! O day, for which creation and all its tribes were made! O joy, for all its former woes a thousand fold repaid! 3 O then what raptured greetings on Canaan's happy shore; what knitting severed friendships up, where partings are no more! Then eyes with joy shall sparkle that brimmed with tears of late, no orphans left without a home, nor mourners desolate. 4 Bring near your great salvation, O Lamb for sinners slain; fill up the roll of your elect, then take your pow'r and reign! Appear, Desire of nations, your exiles long for home; show in the heav'n your promised sign; then, Prince and Savior, come. Scripture: Isaiah 25:6-9 Used With Tune: EASTHAM

Neale Appears in 380 hymnals Topics: Church Festivals Passion and Easter Lyrics: 1 Come, ye faithful, raise the strain Of triumphant gladness, God has brought His Israel Into joy from sadness; Loosed from Pharaoh’s bitter yoke Jacob’s sons and daughters, Led them with unmoistened foot Thro' the Red Sea waters. 2 'Tis the spring of souls today, Christ hath burst His prison, And from three days' sleep in death As a sun hath risen; All the winter of our sins, Long and dark, is flying From His light, to whom we give Laud and praise undying. 3 Now the queen of seasons, bright With the day of splendor, With the royal feast of feasts, Comes its joy to render; Comes to glad Jerusalem, Who with true affection Welcomes, in unwearied strains Jesus' resurrection. 4 Neither might the gates of death Nor the tomb’s dark portal, Nor the watchers, nor the seal, Hold Thee as a mortal; But today amid Thine own Thou didst stand, bestowing This, Thy peace, which evermore Passeth human knowing.

A-men. 3 A glorious band, the chosen few, On whom the Spirit came, Twelve valiant saints, their hope they knew, And mocked the cross and flame. They met the tyrant's brandished steel, The lion's gory mane; They bowed their necks the death to feel: Who follows in their train? 4 A noble army, men and boys, The matron and the maid, Around the Saviour's throne rejoice In robes of light arrayed. They climbed the steep ascent of heaven Through peril, toil, and pain: O God, to us may grace be given To follow in their train! Amen. Used With Tune: ALL SAINTS NEW
