O Lord my God
When I in awe‑filled wonder see
The works Your hands have made throughout the sky
I see the stars
I hear the rolling thunder fly
Your power echoing through the earth and sky
From ashes old You light a brand‑new dawn
You turn the broken into something strong
Then sings my soul my Savior God to Thee
How great You are how great You are!
Then sings my soul my Savior God to Thee
How great You are how great You are!
From every shell of what I used to be
You rise like flame You rise like grace in me
When through the woods and forest paths I wander
I hear the birds sing softly in the trees
When I look down from mountain heights so grand
I feel the stream and breathe the gentle breeze
In every leaf in every tiny sound
I see the hand that holds the world around
You take the dust of what has come and gone
And make a brand‑new song
Then sings my soul my Savior God to Thee
How great You are how great You are!
Then sings my soul my Savior God to Thee
How great You are how great You are!
From every shell of what I used to be
You rise like flame You rise like grace in me
And when I think that God His Son not spared
Sent Him to die so I could live again
That on the cross He took my weight and shame
And bled and died to lift my heavy sin
From death He rose and broke the chains in two
Now what was dead is living bright and new
Old wounds You turn to songs of mercy
Old nights are now Your story
Then sings my soul my Savior God to Thee
How great You are how great You are!
Then sings my soul my Savior God to Thee
How great You are how great You are!
From every shell of what I used to be
You rise like flame You rise like grace in me
When Christ shall come with shout of acclamation
And take me home where brokenness is gone
Then I will bow in humble adoration
And there proclaim my God how great You are
From cinder piles You build a holy throne
From every loss You write a kingdom song
You take the "old" and make it "ever new"
And then my soul sings "Lord I'm home in You"
Then sings my soul my Savior God to Thee
How great You are how great You are!
Then sings my soul my Savior God to Thee
How great You are how great You are!
From every shell of what I used to be
You rise like flame You rise like grace in me
I have no words that reach high enough
I have no song that captures who You are
But everything in me rises up
And all I know to say is
You are greater than the mountains
You are deeper than the sea
You are higher than my highest thought
And still You think of me
You spoke the stars into their places
You breathed the morning into light
You hold the oceans in Your hand
And still You hold me tight
What kind of love is this
That leaves the throne of heaven
To find one broken soul
And call it worth the bleeding
What kind of God is this
Who knows my name in glory
Who writes my life into
His own redemption story
How great... how great...
How great You are...
How great... how great...
How great You are...
