How Great Thou Art

  1. Refrain: {DC} Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to Thee,
    "How great Thou art! How great Thou art! {DC al fine}

  2. 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}

  3. 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}

  4. 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}

  5. 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)
