Group's Beautiful 'How Great Thou Art' Rendition

You don’t want to miss this group's beautiful ‘How Great Thou Art’ rendition. In the most wonderful of backdrops with an old-time feel, you’ll surely be recalling this song for days to come. Watch the video to see the wonderful act of praise.

The Burnett Sisters Band performed ‘How Great Thou Art’ at St. Mary the Virgin Church in Minster, England, which was established in 670 AD. The band performs the hymn in the grass in front of the grey stones as the church bell tolls. With a low and slow country rhythm, the members harmonize while playing a medley of guitar, two fiddles, bass, and a banjo. 

The band seems so peaceful and unrushed as they play in the quaint and beautiful setting. Their demeanor matches the cadence of the song, which sings respectful lyrics to God. Some of the words are: 

He bled and died to take away my sin!
Then sings my soul,
My Savior God, to Thee; 
How great Thou art

“How Great Thou Art is a solemn and sweet hymn that acknowledges God’s sacrifice and how awesome he is, the creator of our universe. The writer addresses God from their “soul,” giving honor to how “great” He is. It also talks of the joy of coming home to God in heaven one day, and that the praise for Him will never stop.

Though the words used are old, and it’s not how we would phrase our thoughts in modern times, it’s refreshing to see this more antiquated worship expressed in a different way. 

But no matter the time or song, one thing is for sure—God is always a great God, and his goodness will last forever. 

“Great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; and his greatness is unsearchable.” Psalms 145:3
