Author: Stuart K. Hine, 1899-1989 Hymnal: Worship and Rejoice #51 (2003) Scripture: Psalm 66:3 First Line: O Lord my God, when I in awesome wonder Refrain First Line: Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to thee Lyrics: 1 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.
Refrain:
Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to thee:
how great thou art, how great thou art!
Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to thee:
how great thou art, how great thou art!
2 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]
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]
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!" [Refrain] Topics: Adoration Languages: English Tune Title: [O Lord my God, when I in awesome wonder]
How Great Thou Art
