All part of my story, this ‘More Worship Moments’ playlist features songs written by others that I’ve had the privilege of recording, either in the studio or when leading worship at various events.
Surely these are some of the greatest worship lyrics ever written!
WHEN I SURVEY THE WONDROUS CROSS
by Isaac Watts (1674-1748)
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 Lord
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?
Were the whole realm of nature mine
That were an offering far too small
Love so amazing, so divine
Demands my soul, my life, my all
