How Great Thou Art!


Chosen by God!

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving, a day the world recognizes as a time to give thanks. For believers, every day is Thanksgiving because every day, we have so much to be thankful for! Jesus, the Lamb of God, took away our sins and made us a part of His family. Let's take a moment and reflect on how great God is!

How Great Thou Art

~ Lyrics ~ Carl Boberg, 1859 - 1940

~ English Translation ~ Stuart K. Hine, 1899 - 1989

STANZA 1:

O Lord my God,

When I in awesome wonder

Consider all

The world Thy Hand hath made,

I see the stars,

I hear the rolling thunder,

Thy pow'r throughout

The universe displayed;

REFRAIN:

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!

STANZA 2:

When through the woods

And forest glades I wander

I 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

STANZA 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.

REFRAIN

STANZA 3:

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!"

Be Encouraged!
