On Gwhich the CPrince of Gglory Ddied,
My Grichest Emgain I Ccount but Dloss,
And Gpour conCtempt Don all my Gpride.

Save Gin the Cdeath of GChrist my DGod!
All Gthe vain Emthings that Ccharm me Dmost,
I GsacriCfice Dthem to His Gblood.
Verse 3
See, Gfrom His Chead, His Ghands, His Dfeet,
SorGrow and Clove flow Gmingled Ddown!
Did Ge'er such Emlove and Csorrow Dmeet,
Or Gthorns comCpose Dso rich a Gcrown?
Verse 4
Were Gthe whole Crealm of Gnature Dmine,
That Gwere a Cpresent Gfar too Dsmall;
Love Gso aEmmazing, Cso diDvine,
DeGmands my Csoul, Dmy life, my Gall.
