How Great Thou Art
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 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
Verse 2
And when I think,
that God His son not sparing
sent him to die, I scarce can take it in
He bled and died
to take away my sin
Chorus
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 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

Amazing grace
How sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me

Was blind but now I see

‘Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed

My chains are gone
I’ve been set free
My God my Savior has ransomed me
And like a flood His mercy reigns
Unending love amazing grace

The Lord has promised good to me
His word my hope secures
He will my shield and portion be
As long as life endures

And like a flood His mercy reigns
Unending love amazing grace

The earth shall soon dissolve like snow
The sun forbear to shine
But God Who called me here below
Will be forever mine
Will be forever mine
You are forever mine
Crown Him
Verse 1

The Lamb upon His throne
Hark! How the heavenly anthem drowns
All music but its own
Awake my soul and sing
Of Him who died for me
And hail Him as thy matchless King
Through all eternity

Majesty, Lord of all
Let every throne before Him fall
The King of kings
O come adore
Our God who reigns forevermore
Verse 2

Who triumphed o’er the grave
And rose victorious in the strife
For those He came to save
His glories now we sing
Who died and rose on high
Who died eternal life to bring
And lives that death may die

Majesty, Lord of all
Let every throne before Him fall
