Click to listen to the music of How Great Thou Art and sing along!

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.

Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee
How great Thou art, How great Thou art.
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 see the brook, and feel the gentle breeze.

Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee
How great Thou art, How great Thou art.
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.
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 then proclaim: "My God, how great Thou art!"

Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee
How great Thou art, How great Thou art.
Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee
How great Thou art, How great Thou art!
