How Great Thou Art Stuart K Hine/ arr. Dan ForrestO Lord my God, 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 power throughout the universe displayed.
RefrainThen 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; Refrain
And when I think that God his Son not sparing, sent him to die, I scares can take it in; That on the cross my burden gladly bearing, he bled and died to take away my sin. Refrain
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!” Refrain
