Strofă 1
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
Strofă 2
See from His head His hands His feet
Sorrow and love for me poured down
Did e'er such love and sorrow meet
Or thorns compose so rich a crown
Refren
Oh, the wonderful cross [2x]
Bids me come and die and find
That I may truly live
Oh, the wonderful cross [2x]
All who gather here by grace
Drawn here and bless your name
Strofă 3
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
Strofă 4
Life so amazing, so divine
Demands my soul. my life, my all
And the beauty and the shame
In the glory of His name
Oh, the wonderful cross
