“How Great is Our God” – Powerful Song by Chris Tomlin Sang in Many Languages

Chris Tomlin performed his well-known worship song “How Great is Our God” with his international friends, who are worship leaders, in multiple languages at Passion 2012 in the Georgia Dome. It’s really amazing to witness people singing one song in unity in different languages around the world. It is such a blessing that even we don’t actually understand the words literally, we are able to communicate through our Spirits. I remember a story where a man traveled in a country where there are only few people who can speak English. He had been walking around the city to find a Christian Church asking people for directions. He almost gave up but out of frustration he screamed “hallelujah!” and bingo, the people who heard him led him to the Church!

Chris Tomlin unites with his fellow worship leader created a wonderful atmosphere of faith with this video. I’m sure, it will be a blessing to you and your friends. Make sure you share this page by clicking the link below to your family, Facebook friends, and networks.

“After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could number, of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their hands, 10 and crying out with a loud voice, saying, “Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!”

Revelation 7:9-10 NKJV

How Great Is Our God Lyrics

Song by Chris Tomlin

The splendor of a King, clothed in majesty
Let all the Earth rejoice
All the Earth rejoice

He wraps himself in light
And darkness tries to hide
And trembles at His voice
Trembles at His voice

How great is our God, sing with me
How great is our God, and all will see
How great, how great is our God

Age to age He stands
And time is in His hands
Beginning and the end
Beginning and the end

The Godhead Three in One
Father Spirit Son
The Lion and the Lamb
The Lion and the Lamb

How great is our God, sing with me
How great is our God, and all will see
How great, how great is our God

Name above all names (how great is our God, sing with me)
Worthy of our praise (how great is our God, and all will see)
My heart will sing
How great is our God

You’re the name above all names (how great is our God, sing with me)
You are worthy of our praise (how great is our God, and all will see)
And my heart will sing
How great is our God

How great is our God, sing with me
How great is our God, and all will see
How great, how great is our God

How great is our God, sing with me
How great is our God, and all will see
How great, how great is our God

How great is our God, sing with me
How great is our God, and all will see
How great, how great is our God

Chris Tomlin’s “Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone)” – A Powerful Remake of Hymn

This is another beautiful song led by Chris Tomlin. He is indeed a gifted worship leader. Every word and every note he sings creates an atmosphere of worship to the glory of God. The difference of Chris Tomlin from other singers is the fact the he seems to put himself in the background and magnify God as the main actor of the song.

Amazing Grace My Chains Are Gone!

Story of Amazing Grace Song

I stumbled on this article about the story behind the Hymn Amazing Grace. It is a great read. I trust that as you watch the above video and read the story behind the song, you will find your amazing grace if you have not found yours.

Amazing Grace, The story of John Newton, author of America’s favorite hymn by Dr. Ralph F. Wilson source: http://www.joyfulheart.com/misc/newton.htm
I used to think America’s favorite hymn, “Amazing Grace” (MIDI), was a bit overdone: “… that saved a wretch like me.” Really now!
But the author was a wretch, a moral pariah. While a new believer around 1750, John Newton had commanded an English slave ship.
You know what that meant. Ships would make the first leg of their voyage from England nearly empty until they would anchor off the African coast. There tribal chiefs would deliver to the Europeans stockades full of men and women, captured in raids and wars against other tribes. Buyers would select the finest specimens, which would be bartered for weapons, ammunition, metal, liquor, trinkets, and cloth. Then the captives would be loaded aboard, packed for sailing. They were chained below decks to prevent suicides, laid side by side to save space, row after row, one after another, until the vessel was laden with as many as 600 units of human cargo.
Slaves were “packed” in ships for the voyage across the Atlantic. (The Granger Collection) in Peter Wood, The Seafarers: The Spanish Main (Time-Life Books, 1979), p. 63)
Captains sought a fast voyage across the Atlantic’s infamous “middle passage,” hoping to preserve as much as their cargo as possible, yet mortality sometimes ran 20% or higher. When an outbreak of smallpox or dysentery occurred, the stricken were cast overboard. Once they arrived in the New World, blacks were traded for sugar and molasses to manufacture rum, which the ships would carry to England for the final leg of their “triangle trade.” Then off to Africa for yet another round. John Newton transported more than a few shiploads of the 6 million African slaves brought to the Americas in the 18th century.
At sea by the age of eleven, he was forced to enlist on a British man-of-war seven years later. Recaptured after desertion, the disgraced sailor was exchanged to the crew of a slave ship bound for Africa.
It was a book he found on board–Thomas à Kempis’ Imitation of Christ–which sowed the seeds of his conversion. When a ship nearly foundered in a storm, he gave his life to Christ. Later he was promoted to captain of a slave ship. Commanding a slave vessel seems like a strange place to find a new Christian. But at last the inhuman aspects of the business began to pall on him, and he left the sea for good.
While working as a tide surveyor he studied for the ministry, and for the last 43 years of his life preached the gospel in Olney and London. At 82, Newton said, “My memory is nearly gone, but I remember two things, that I am a great sinner, and that Christ is a great Saviour.” No wonder he understood so well grace–the completely undeserved mercy and favor of God.
Newton’s tombstone reads, “John Newton, Clerk, once an infidel and libertine, a servant of slaves in Africa, was, by the rich mercy of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, preserved, restored, pardoned, and appointed to preach the faith he had long labored to destroy.” But a far greater testimony outlives Newton in the most famous of the hundreds of hymns he wrote:
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me,
I once was lost, but now am found,
Was blind, but now I see.
‘Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
And grace my fears relieved.
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed.
Through many dangers, toils and snares,
I have already come.
‘Tis grace hath brought me safe thus far,
And grace will lead me home.

Chris Tomlin Song I Stand Amazed

Chris Tomlin made a beautiful rendition of the old hymn Oh How Marvelous!  A worship song declaring how wonderful and how marvelous is our Savior’s love for all us. A love undeserved by sinners, condemned to hell, and unclean spirits like most of us. The lyrics of this song I Stand Amazed is so meaningful. This song speaks of the unconditional love of God. We all fall short of the glory of God. But God, being rich in love and mercy, demonstrated His love for us. While we are still sinners, Jesus died for us so we can have our sins forgiven forever and have peace with our heavenly Father.
