When I Survey
by Matthew Ward

Album: Even Now

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

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

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?

In the cross, in the cross
Be my glory ever
Till my raptured soul shall find
Rest beyond the river
Jesus, keep me near the cross
