How Great Thou Art
Elvis Presley ‧ 1967
Oh 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 I shall bow in humble adoration
And there proclaim, my God, how great thou art
Then sings my soul, my savior God, to thee
How great thou art (How great thou art)
How great thou art (How great thout art)
Then sings my soul, my savior God, to thee
How great thou art
How great thou art
