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
CHORUS:
Oh the wondrous cross
Source of life to me
Jesus paid the cost
To set this sinner free !
2. Forbid it Lord that I should boast
Save in the cross of Christ, my God
All the vain things that charm me
most
I sacrifice them to His blood (chorus)
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? (chorus
2x)
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
(chorus 2x)
He set this sinner free,
oh
He set this sinner free, oh
He
set this sinner free
!!!
