Isaac Watts is best known for his hymn-writing. One of his most famous hymns is "When I Survey the Wondrous Cross". He was born in Southampton, England, on 17 July 1674. Watts did not just believe his faith: he lived it. He refused to accept funds for his education if it meant conforming to the man-made rules and regulations of the Church of England. His own father had twice been imprisoned for refusing to conform to that church's beliefs. Watts worked towards his education with no external help, and became a preacher. He gave his first sermon on his birthday, 17 July 1698, at Mark Lane in London. In 1707, Watts published his "Hymns and Spiritual Songs" which included "Joy to the World." These hymns are Watts' main legacy to Christendom.
