This classic hymn always reminds us that we are loved by a power greater than anything we can ever imagine.

And there proclaim,
‘My God, how great Thou art!'"

The Story Behind This Beloved Hymn
Swedish evangelist, Rev. Carl Boberg, wrote this hymn in 1885. He set the words to a Swedish folk melody. The hymn became translated to German, then Russian, and then into English.
An English missionary named Stuart Hine was responsible for this while he was working in Ukraine and heard a congregation sing the song in Russian. However, How Great Thou Art did not gain worldwide popularity until it was performed by George Beverly Shea on a Billy Graham crusade in 1957.
Today, the three talented men of The Tenors are putting their own spin on How Great Thou Art.
Just listen as they come together for a beautiful performance of this beloved hymn full of love and praise for our King. Who else is raising their hands in the air right now?

Romans 8:38-39 “For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
