recorded live at St. Andrew's Lutheran Church in Mahtomedi, MN, on their IV/108 rank Cassavant pipe organ

lyrics

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) –
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, I 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,
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!”
