O CLord my God, when FI in awesome Cwonder

Consider Call the worlds Thy Ghands have G7made

I Csee the stars, I Fhear the rolling Cthunder

Thy Ampower throughFout the Cuniverse disG7played

Then Csings my Fsoul, my CSavior God to GThee

How Cgreat Thou C7art, how Fgreat Thou Cart

Then Csings my Fsoul, my CSavior God to GThee

How Cgreat Thou G7art, how great Thou Cart

When Cthrough the woods and Fforest glades I Cwander

And Chear the birds sing Gsweetly in the G7trees

When CI look down from Flofty mountain Cgrandeur

And Amhear the brook Fand feel the Cgentle G7breeze

Then Csings my Fsoul, my CSavior God to GThee

How Cgreat Thou C7art, how Fgreat Thou Cart

Then Csings my Fsoul, my CSavior God to GThee

How Cgreat Thou G7art, how great Thou Cart

And Cwhen I think that FGod, His Son not Csparing

Sent CHim to die, I Gscarce can take it G7in

That Con the cross, my Fburden gladly Cbearing

He Ambled and Fdied to take aCway my G7sin

When CChrist shall come with Fshout of acclaCmation

And Ctake me home, what Gjoy shall fill my G7heart

Then CI shall bow in Fhumble adoraCtion

And Amthere proFclaim, my CGod, how great Thou G7art
