How Great Thou Art

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,

                 A          E        A

Thy power throughout the universe displayed

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

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

(Chorus)

 

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

(Chorus)
