Written by Carl Boberg this hymn inspires awe and reverence as we consider the greatness of our God. The chorus, &#8220;<em>Then sings my soul, my Savior God, to Thee, how great Thou art!<\/em>&#8221; expresses the deep sense of wonder and praise that fills our hearts.<\/p>\n<p>\ud83c\udfb5Singing &#8220;How Great Thou Art&#8221; draws us into a posture of thanksgiving, marveling at the beauty and complexity of the world around us. It reminds us that the same God who created the heavens and the earth is intimately involved in our lives, deserving of our highest praise.<\/p>\n<p>Today I encourage you to spend some time outside today, observing God\u2019s creation. Let the sights and sounds around you inspire your worship and lead you to sing &#8220;How Great Thou Art.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Prayer for today<\/strong>: <em>Great God, Mighty Creator, we stand in awe of Your greatness and power. As we sing &#8220;How Great Thou Art,&#8221; fill our hearts with a profound sense of wonder and gratitude for all that You have made. May our voices rise in joyful praise, and may our lives reflect Your glory.
