A.54 How Great Thou Art!

1. O Lord my God, when I in  awesome wonder,
    Consider all the works Thy hands have made
    I see the star, I hear the rolling thunder,
    Thy power throughout the universe displayed.

Chorus :
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. 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.

3. When burdens press and seem beyond endurance,
    Bowed down with grief, to Him I lift my face;
    And then in love He brings my sweet assurance:
    "My child! for thee sufficient is My grace."

4. When Christ shall come with shouts of acclamation,
    And take me home - what joy shall fill my heart!
    Then I shall bow with humble adoration,
    And there proclaim, My God How great Thou art!
