Wilson (A0.1379809).One of Christendom’s most popular hymns is When I Survey the Wondrous Cross. The lyrics were written by Isaac Watts. He is regarded as the Father of English hymnody.

The American hymn tune we associate with Watts’ text was composed by Lowell Mason. He composed over 1,600 hymn tunes.
This unique piano setting begins quietly and reverently. It makes its way through a dynamic key change and will end forcefully with a surprising harmonic conclusion. This is an arrangement you must include in your repertoire. The congregation will ask for it to be played time and again.
