Shane & Shane's rendition of 'How Great Thou Art' is a classic hymn that expresses awe and wonder at God's creation, the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross, and the hope of Christ's return. The song moves from contemplating the vastness of the universe to the personal reality of sin being taken away, and finally to the joyful anticipation of eternal worship. It is a heartfelt declaration of God's greatness and a response of praise from the soul.

O 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

Chorus
Then sings my soul
My Savior God to Thee
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

Verse 2
And when I think
That God His Son not sparing
Sent Him to die
I scarce can take it in
That on the Cross
My burden gladly bearing
He bled and died to take away my sin

Chorus
Then sings my soul
My Savior God to Thee
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

Verse 3
When Christ shall come
With shout of acclamation
And lead me home
What joy shall fill my heart
Then I shall bow with humble adoration
And then 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
Then sings my soul
My Savior God to Thee
How great Thou art
How great Thou art
