When I Survey The Wondrous Cross
Virtual Choir #14

Welcome to the project page for Virtual Choir #14 - When I Survey The Wondrous Cross, honouring the sacrificial death of Christ for His people. The lyrics of this beloved hymn were written by Isaac Watts and published in 1707. For this project, we won't be singing either of the traditional tunes used for this hymn, Hamburg or Rockingham. Instead, we will be adapting Watts' lyrics to the traditional Scottish tune, O Waly, Waly - better known as The Water is Wide. This beautiful melody elevates the original lyrics to greater heights, and has so much more room for creative arranging.

Thanks so much to all participants for bringing this arrangement to life! Choir members can view submission feedback using the MySubmission tool.
