1. When I survey the wondrous cross
On which the Prince of glory died,

That were a present far too small;
Love so amazing, so divine,
Demands my soul, my life, my all.
Words: Isaac Watts
Music: Traditional Scottish Melody
Vocalists: Sara DiSalvo, Steve Lively, and Philip Webb
Instrumentalists: Julian Cordero - Drums, David Kaya - Piano, Eric Lan - Violin

His hand the wonders wrought.2. This is my Father’s world,
The birds their carols rai...
