Consider all the worlds Thy hands have made,
I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder,
Thy pow'r 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: Christ Resurrection; Christ Resurrection; Christ Return; Second Coming Languages: English Tune Title: [O Lord my God! When I in awesome wonder]
