O Lord, how good, how great art Thou. H. F. Lyte. [Psalms viii.] This is Lyte's altered version of his paraphrase of Psalms viii., which first appeared as "How good, how faithful, Lord, art Thou", in his Poems, 1833. This altered form was given in his Spirit of the Psalms, 1834, and is found in the Wesleyan Hymn Book, 1875, and other collections.
