14. HOW GREAT THOU ART

  1. O Lord my God! When I in awesome wonder;

    Consider all the works Thy hands hath made,

    I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder,

    Thy pow’r thro’ out the universe displayed,

    Chorus:

    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!

  2. 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;

  3.  And when I think that god, his son not sparing,

    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;

  4.  When Christ shall come with shout of acclamation,

    And take me home, what joy shall fill my heart!

    Then I shall bow in humble adoration,

    And there proclaim, my God, how great Thou art!

GOSPEL REALM: STEPS TO SALVATION
1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
