How Great Thou Art

How Great Thou Art

[Verse]
A                       D 
O Lord my God when I in awesome wonder 
         A                 E        A 
Consider all the works thy hand has made 
          D 
I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder 
                    A            E          A
Your power through- out the uni- verse dis- played 

[Verse 2]
              A        D              A 
Then sings my soul, my saviour God to thee 
               E                   A 
How great thou art, how great thou art 
              A        D              A 
Then sings my soul, my saviour God to thee 
               E        D     E    A 
How great thou art, how great thou art 

[Verse 3]
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 see the brook, and feel the gentle breeze. 

[Verse 4]
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 5]
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 then proclaim: "My God, how great Thou art!"
