Program Notes:

“The Wonderful Cross” has proven to be a favorite to many since it was written fifteen years ago. Although associated with Easter, its clear message resonates with Christians at any time of year.

Chris Tomlin and two of his Passion movement colleagues took a classic hymn by Isaac Watts (1674-1748), “When I Survey the Wondrous Cross,” and transformed it into a modern worship song by adding a chorus. These simple changes helped to bring Watts’ timeless words to a new generation of Christians.
