How Great Thou Art

O 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 pow'r throughout the universe displayed.

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!"

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;

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;

When Christ shall come with shouts 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!"
