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 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!
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: General Hymns God the Father Scripture: Psalm 104:1 Languages: English Tune Title: O STORE GUD
