C             G  
When I survey the wondrous cross  
Am               F  
On which the Prince of Glory died,  
C                 G  
My richest gain I count but loss,  
Am              F  
And pour contempt on all my pride.  

C               G  
Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast,  
Am                 F  
Save in the death of Christ, my God!  
C                 G  
All the vain things that charm me most,  
Am               F  
I sacrifice them to His blood.  

C                   G  
See, from His head, His hands, His feet,  
Am              F  
Sorrow and love flow mingled down;  
C                G  
Did e'er such love and sorrow meet,  
Am                F  
Or thorns compose so rich a crown?  

C               G  
Were the whole realm of nature mine,  
Am              F  
That were a present far too small;  
C                  G  
Love so amazing, so divine,  
Am               F  
Demands my soul, my life, my all.
