How Great Thou Art
Verse 1
O 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.
Chorus
Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to Thee; How great Thou art, how great Thou art!
Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to Thee: How great Thou art, how great Thou art!
Verse 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.
Repeat Chorus
Verse 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!
Repeat Chorus

Christ Be Magnified
Verse 1
Were creation suddenly articulate with a thousand tongues to lift one cry
Then from north to south and east to west we’d hear Christ be magnified
Verse 2
Were the whole earth echoing His eminence His name would burst from sea and sky
From rivers to the mountain tops we’d hear Christ be magnified
Chorus
O Christ be magnified let His praise arise Christ be magnified in me
O Christ be magnified from the altar of my life Christ be magnified in me
Verse 3
When every creature finds its inmost melody and every human heart its native cry
O then in one enraptured hymn of praise we’ll sing Christ be magnified
Bridge
I won’t bow to idols I’ll stand strong and worship You And if it puts me in the fire I’ll rejoice ‘cause You’re there too
I won’t be formed by feelings I hold fast to what is true
If the cross brings transformation Then I’ll be crucified with You
Bridge
‘Cause death is just the doorway into resurrection life
If I join You in Your sufferings then I’ll join You when You rise And when You return in glory with all the angels and the saints
My heart will still be singing My song will be the same
