When I Survey The Wondrous Cross

Isaac Watts if often referred to as "the father of English hymnody." He showed an unusual intelligence at a very young age. He learned Latin at the age of five, Greek at nine, French at eleven and Hebrew at thirteen. He began preaching at a young age and would write a hymn to close his sermon. This hymn was written for a communion service.

When I sur-vey th-e won-dr-ous cross 

 5   5    5    -5   5-4 4 -3 4  -4
On which the Prince o-f glo-ry died,

My rich-est gain  I  count bu-t loss, 

 5    5   5   -4    4 -4  5-4   4
And pour con-tempt on all m-y pride.

verse 2
Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast,
Save in the death of Christ, my God;
All he vain things that charm me most
I sacrifice them to His blood.

verse 3
See, from His head, His hand, His feet,
Sorrow and love flow mingled down;
Did e'er such love and sorrow meet,
Or thorns compose so rich a crown?

verse 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.
