A beautiful arrangement for voice, piano, and cello blending "When I Survey the Wondrous Cross" (set to the Irish tune "The Water is Wide") with "Down in the Valley."

lyrics

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.

Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast
Save in the death of Christ, my God.
All the vain things that charm me most
I sacrifice to his blood.

See from His head, His hands, His feet,
Sorrow and love flow mingled down.
Did e'er such love and sorrow meet
Or thorns compose so rich a crown?

Were the whole realm of nature mine
That were a present far too small
Love so amazing, so divine
Demands my soul, my life, my all

For Him I give my life, my all
