Oh Lord my God! When I in awesome wonder
Consider all the works thy hand hath made,
I see the stars, I hear the mighty thunder,
Thy power throughout the universe displayed;
Refrain:
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!
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 hear the brook, and feel the gentle breeze… by Carl Gustav Boberg
Awesome photo 🙂 We’ve had some truly beautiful and amazing sunsets here in Louisville recently… like the one in the photo but with clouds that glow at the edges with the light of the setting sun 🙂
I love sunsets….we just happened to be driving home from a visit with our kids in Western Oklahoma….I saw the sun and a lake …and since I was driving….I took an exit! 😉 😉
Oh I remember this song from my childhood. Perfect photo!
I miss the old songs….. thanks…have a good one! paula
Wonderful photo and lovely hymn… I remember it well and instead of reading it I sang it… my wife and dogs are still howling at my rendition…
I have to sing it to recall all the words, too! I’m guessing you have a lovely bass voice ♪ ♫ ♪
thank you – I sang the words to myself and I feel very Sunday today
😉 Happy SuNdAy ♥
One of mt favs we saing this all the time at church…our pastor loves the old gospel as much as I do!!
I love the progressive music….but there are times I just “need” a good hymn ♥
One of my favorite hymns 🙂 Be blessed this day!
Me too, and YOU too! ♥
Yes, i remember this one too from a long time ago. Beautiful hymn.
Isn’t it a great one. Every sunset and t-storm…..I am reminded of this song♥
Beautiful sunset image!
Thanks so much….it was cold out, but too pretty not to pull over and shoot. Happy Sunday!
Glad you had your camera. I treasure that hymn.
😉 It’s a great one ~
I wish I knew how many times I played “How Great Thou Art” during my 30 years as church organist, and organist at the mortuary. I never got tired of it. I know the younger folks like the more contemporary church music, but the words just don’t bless like the old songs. Your photo was beautiful and left me with a peaceful feeling, after a stressful week. Thanks.
The song is very peaceful, Delores. I’m sorry you had a stressful week. Head on over to the piano…..it’s great therapy. ♥ Here’s to next week 😉
Awesome! Thank you!
😉
There are some hymns that reduce me to tears. This is one of them. Love the accompanying photo.
♥
I have had the same thought seeing the amazing sunsets this week. How great indeed…
amen!
Perfect song to go with that photo! Thanks.
😉 Have a great Monday!
