Full Lyrics
VERSE 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 pow'r thro'out 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!
VERSE 2
When thro' 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;
VERSE 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;
VERSE 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!
