How Great Thou Art

Verse 1

O Lord my God

When I in awesome wonder

Consider all the works

Thy hands have made,

I see the stars,

I hear the rolling thunder,

Thy pow’r throughout

The universe displayed!

Chorus

Then sings my soul,

My Savior God, to Thee;

How great Thou art,

How great Thou art!

Then sings my soul,

My Savior God, to Thee;

How great Thou art,

How great Thou art!

Verse 2

When thru the woods

And forest glades I wander

And hear the birds

Sing sweetly in the trees,

When I look down

From lofty mountain grandeur

And hear the brook

And feel the gentle breeze,

Verse 3

And when I think

That God, His Son not sparing,

Sent Him to die,

I scarce can take it in –

That on the cross,

My burden gladly bearing,

He bled and died

To take away my sin!

Verse 4

When Christ shall come

With shout of acclamation

And take me home,

What joy shall fill my heart!

Then I shall bow

In humble adoration

And there proclaim,

My God, how great Thou art!
