One of the most loved hymns of all time–How Great Thou Art

Oh, Lord, my God, when I in awesome wonder Consider all the worlds Thy hands have made
I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder Thy power throughout the universe displayed.

Then sings my soul, my Saviour, God to Thee “How great Thou art, How great Thou art.”

When through 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.

Then sings my soul, my Saviour, God to Thee “How great Thou art, How great Thou art.”

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.

Then sings my soul, my Saviour, God to Thee, “How great Thou art, How great Thou art.”

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.”
