Full Lyrics
O Lord my God, when I in awesome wonder
consider all the works thy hands have made,
I see the stars, I hear the mighty thunder,
thy pow'r throughout the universe displayed.
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!
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.
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,
Jesus, who died, now glorified; his name be praised.
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"
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!
Jesus, who died, now glorified;
how great thou art!
