How Great Thou Art
No Capo
[Intro]
G
 
[Verse 1]
 G                         C
Oh Lord my God, When I in awesome wonder,
           G        D          C         G
Consider all the worlds, Thy hands have made.
             G                 C
I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder,
            G              D         G
Thy power throughout, The universe displayed.
 
[Chorus]
              G        C               G
Then sings my soul, My Saviour God to Thee,
                Am   D               G
How great thou art, How great thou art.
               G        C               G
Then sings my soul, My Saviour God to Thee, 
                Am   D              G
How great Thou art, How great Thou art.
 
[Verse 2]
G
When thro’ the woods and forest glades I
  C
wander and hear the birds sing sweetly in the 
 D       C                       G
trees, When I look down from lofty mountain 
    D        G                 C
grandeur, And hear the brook and feel the 
          D
gentle breeze.
 
2X [Chorus]
               G        C               G
Then sings my soul, My Saviour God to Thee,
               Am    D                G
How great Thou art, How great Thou art.
 
[verse 3]
G                                        C
And when I think that God His Son not sparing, 
                        G           D      G
Sent Him to die, I scarce can take it in. That 
            G      C
Jesus on cross, my burden gladly bearing, 
G                  D               G
He bled and died to take away my sin. 
 
2X [Chorus]
               G        C               G
Then sings my soul, My Saviour God to Thee,
               Am    D                G
How great Thou art, How great Thou art.
 
[verse 4]
  G                                    C
When Christ shall come, With shouts of acclamation,
              G         D                G
And take me home, What joy shall fill my heart.
              G              C
Then I shall bow, In humble adoration,
           G           D          C        G
And there proclaim My God, How great Thou art.
 
[Chorus]
               G        C               G
Then sings my soul, My Saviour God to Thee,
               Am    D                G
How great Thou art, How great Thou art.
               G        C               G
Then sings my soul, My Saviour God to Thee
                Am   D              G
How great Thou art, How great Thou art.
 
 G              Am
How great Thou art
D              G
