about

This powerful hymn, When I Survey, arranged by Roy Cotton II is infused with many musical influences (African, classical, broadway) but most of all it is infused with the anointing of the Holy Spirit. This song is celebratory, reflective, authentic and classic! For those who wonder if the hymn is becoming obsolete...the answer is NO! The hymns are filled with the revelatory nature of God and our response to his gift of love to us! We invite you to survey the wondrous cross!!!

lyrics

Lyrics:
When I survey the wondrous Cross
On which the prince of glory died.
My richest gain I count but lost.
And poor contempt on all my pride.

Forbid it Lord that I should boast
I saved in the debt of Christ, my Lord.
All the vain things that I cherish the most,
I sacrifice them to His blood.

See from His head, His hands, His feet
Sorrow and love flowing down
Did ever love and sorry meet
Or thrones compose so rich a crown.

When I survey the wondrous cross
I realize He's no longer there.
His Kingdom rules over heaven and earth.
Jesus, my Lord, my Life, my All!

When I Survey the wondrous cross!
