4. Were the whole realm o -f na -ture mine,
F Gm F Gm F G7 C
1. On which the Prince o-f glo -ry died,
2. Save in the death o-f Christ, my God;
3. Sor-row and love flow min -gled down;
4. That were a pres -ent far too small;
F C F Gm>Dm Bb C F
1. My rich -est gain I count but loss,
2. All the vain things that charm me most,
3. Did e'er such love and sor -row meet,
4. Love so a -maz -ing, so di -vine,
Gm Dm* Gm C7 F
1. And pour con -tempt on all my pride.
2. I sac-ri -fice them to His blood.
3. Or thorns com-pose so rich a crown?
4. De-mands my soul, my life, my all.
