Refrain:
{DC} Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to Thee,
"How great Thou art! How great Thou art! {DC al fine}
-
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 through out the universe displayed. {Refrain}
-
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 scarce 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 acclaimation,
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}
Carl Boberg (1885)
