How Great Thou Art Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh 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 power throughout the universe displayed


[Verse 2]
(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

[Chorus]
Then sings my soul my savior God to thee
How great thou art (how great thou art)
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

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
