How Great Thou Art

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.

Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,

How great Thou art, How great Thou art.

Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,

How great Thou art, How great Thou art!

The gravitational pull of the moon – produces the tides of the sea

'Thus saith the LORD, which giveth the sun for a light by day, and the

ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night, which divideth

the sea when the waves thereof roar; The LORD of hosts is his name:'

Jeremiah 31:35

'Fear ye not me? says the LORD: will you not tremble at my presence, which have

placed the sand for the bound of the sea by a perpetual decree, that it cannot pass

it: and though the waves thereof toss themselves, yet can they not prevail; though

they roar, yet can they not pass over it?' Jeremiah 5:22

When through the woods, and forest glades I wander,

And hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees.

When I look down, from lofty mountain grandeur

And see the brook, and feel the gentle breeze.

Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,

How great Thou art, How great Thou art.

Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,

How great Thou art, How great Thou art!

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.
