Oh Lord, my GodWhen I in awesome wonderConsider all the worlds thy hands have madeI see the starsI hear the rolling thunderThy power throughout the universe displayed

Then I shall bow in humble adorationAnd there proclaim, my God, how great thou art

Then sings my soul, my savior God, to theeHow great thou art (How great thou art)How great thou art (How great thout art)

Then sings my soul, my savior God, to theeHow great thou artHow great thou art
