Love this hymn. Lifts the spirit. We sang it at our wedding and was sung at the internment of my dear man’s ashes after a long challenging Alzheimer’s journey knowing he’s was safe in the arms of Jesus! God bless you richly as share beautiful hymns with us🙏🏻🙏🏻
This was my dad’s favorite song. He recorded it shortly before he died and asked that we play it at his funeral. Miss him so much, but I know he is with the Lord enjoying His beauty & meditating in His temple.
This song is appreciated for its emotive power, and focus on God's grace and majesty. Its simple, repetitive lyrics are easy for worshipers to pick up and participate in singing praise together. The sweeping melody builds from gentle awe to triumphant exaltation, mirroring the transcendence of the lyrics. The hymn creates a reflective, reverent mood perfect for worship services and ceremonies.
I was going to a young "Baptist" church- at least the building was, but the preacher was a missionary on medical leave from a mission in Irian Jaya. I became a "born again" believer, and this hymn resonated with me. The words drew me closer to realizing the importance of knowing the Saviour closely in order to worship Him from my heart. The beauty of this hymn goes deep.
On a spring morning of 2019, it was a normal day and I was getting ready for work. Suddenly the brightness of the sun flooded the room and this song, ‘Morning Has Broken’, came blasting powerfully and majestically through the radio. I felt the strong presence of the Lord fall upon me and I fell down weeping and praising the Lord. I was born again in that moment, I have followed Jesus ever since. This song is very special to me. That morning was like my first morning, His feet passed by me and my life was transformed. It brought me to tears watching this video, thank you for singing this song. God bless you brother 🙌🙌
While working as a youth director for the summer at 1,000 Trails Campround Emigrant Gap, CA, campfires sing-a-longs took requests. I requested this song, and the leader put it on me to sing, since it wasn’t a Sunday service. Nervously and self-consciously, I took the karaoke mic, and suddenly a visiting camper from the Philippines, a lady my age now (50’s) said “I will sing with you!”. We belted out praise to our King in the Sierra Nevada, and many of the young kids this Pied Piper was leading for activities were very excited at our rendition. I know God used that insecure moment to cast some seed for His Name, and will see that lady from the Philippines again soon, when we’re home.
Thank you Luke. I just found your channel, and you minister to my soul. Today I’m grieving my Mom who died 3 years ago on the 14th of August (3 days from now). Not only was this her favorite hymn, but it was my Grandmother’s also. I’m remembering her celebration service right now as you are telling the story of this great hymn, and I can almost see her bowing in adoration when she met our Lord. I sang along with joy as the lyrics ministered to me in these moments. Indeed, How Great Thou Art! From Johnson City, Tennessee
Thank you for bringing to light the history of the song. This song was our daily school prayer song and whenever we sing this song in the church and in our family prayer there is something that happens in the heart and a beautiful joy enters our heart.
This hymn always brings me to mountain heights, oceans deep, the glories of the Earth, amazements of the of the goodness of God and his great Majesty and love for us. Finally to Calvary where he gave his life to us! 💞
Have always loved this hymn and even more so now than in the past. I recently read an article by a single missionary woman who is ministering to people in remote Himalayan villages. Once when she had journeyed a long way into the mountains, she met up with a Christian family she had come to visit. They climbed up to overlook the valley they lived in to pray over the inhabitants and then sang this hymn together.
In Australia, we sing rolling thunder, which if you live here it does roll. Last year we had one such thunderstorm, the worst clap of rolling thunder I have heard in many years. It was a reminder of things to come as the earth makes its judgment upon the people who are destroying it.
May the Lord help us to be ready for His second coming which is not far by the way. When we shall be reunited with all our loved ones who died believing in Him.🙏🏿 Oh yes when He shall come in great acclamation!! Haleluya 🙌🏾
That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life; . . ." Our senses are very reliable, and with them we understand this song's wonder at creation, both great and small, but oh that which is known in the heart, the greatest expression, which is His great love "wherewith He loved us" and sent His only Son to cloth us in that love.
What a "God Wink" tonight as I've been introduced to your channel. How amazing I find such a young man loving these magnificent hymns!! By His grace and for His glory we press on. Bblessed dear one.❤ P.S. Thank you for sharing the history if these hymns as it such a testimony of His gifts given to whom HE chooses.
I love this channel! You are a truly lovely person. I really like the stories behind the hymns, but even more so when you share your own thoughts and you relate it to us individually. I also love that you sing the hymn at the end. You are such a blessing to me, Luke.😊
Thank you so much for your channel. I recently learned of you in my RUclips feed, and I’m so grateful. This song is so powerful. I cannot sing it without tears streaming down my face. I sing in my church choir, so I know this song so well, and have always loved it, even as a child. Peace and love to you always. ❤🕊
This was my beloved father's favourite hymn. He was a man I loved so much and it is his strong faith that has been my example. I thank God for him and my mother and grandmother who were my example of faith at work in all things... regardless of what life threw at them their faith in God remained steadfast. Thank you for your video's. ❤ From Swellendam South Africa.
I just found your channel and I INSTANTLY SUBBED!! I am almost in tears as I listen to the grace and anointing on your words and voice as you explain "How Great Thou Art" (the 1st video I am watching) ❤❤❤ God bless and thank you!!!
Our infinite God has created an infinite universe. In all of that fastness there is only one living blue world that we can observe and only one of us as an individual and all of time. His power throughout the universe displayed.
This song is my all-time favorite for many years. Our Methodist church in Littleton Centurion sang it regularly, and luckily, our Hagerstown First Church of God in Hagerstown our home town now is Myersville TmFrederick county ,Maryland USA when we traveled in the Rockies and along the Columbia River and Mount Hood Washington state. All of nature in Yellowstone national park. Mount Zion, Bryce Canyon
Also the Grand Canyon all magnificent when we see The stars in Zimbabwe that looks like you can touch them. Or even just realizing the mighty God Creator we Serve. Love from Myersville MD USA
Its my favourite hymn. 2nd comes Guide me. Which i pray for each day of my life Guide me, O thou great Redeemer, pilgrim through this barren land; I am weak, but thou art mighty; hold me with thy powerful hand
Guide me O thou great Redeemer was ny dad’s choice of a hymn at his funeral. He was a man who lived in devoted service to His God. Only now do I realise the depth of truth in those words and How great our Redeemer is. Our witness to the next generation.
The Bible says that the day of ones death is better than the day of ones birth....Amen. ..we have two grown children in heaven now before us and one son and his family in Texas....
Please as u are explaining about this hymn I feel so sad when I hear other people change someone tune and whe I read how the writers of ma ny hymns how they struggled to make the tune the melody voices. I feel very very sorry I wish people should not change the tunes of the real tunes. God bless all and try to understand
Een van my groot gunstelinge. Baie dankie vir die agtergrond. Geniet altyd om te hoor hoe die lirieke en musiek bymekaar uitgekom het. Na ek 'n ruk gelede geluister het na hierdie video ruclips.net/video/7xNJyqTFaXs/видео.html deur Christian Berdahl, het ek net geweet en weereens besef hoe versigtig mens met musiek, of die uitvoering daarvan, moet wees. Dit is nie net die lirieke wat saak maak nie, maar ook baie beslis hoe dit gesing word. In groot opregtheid en waardering vir al jou videos, moet ek sê ek het die heerlikheid en grootheid van God gesien en gehoor in die lirieke wat jy voorgelees het, maar nie in die weergawe daarvan in die musiek self nie. Jy is ongelooflik talentvol en ek geniet meeste van jou uitvoering daarvan, maar ek kan dit ongelukkig nie van hierdie een sê nie. Luister gerus na die link hierbo en ook van die seminare wat hy aanbied. Hy kom self uit die agtergrond van musiek en Hollywood. Jy sal nooit weer na musiek luister heeltemal soos voorheen nie. Ek sê hierdie alles in groot liefde.
So sad that many of these great classic hymns have been shoved aside for rock and roll like contemporary empty songs with no sense of divinity or humility for the greatness of God.
I feel that Pastor Luke Powell has the holy spirit in him. May our Lord God bless him and his family. IN HIS NAME AMEN 🙏🙏🙏

Hallelujah, thank you servant of the most high GOD for sharing this great song, my soul sings to the LORD, he is great indeed. Amen 🙏
Elvis Presley did not know this song until the Jordanaires taught it to him. He loved the song and sang it at the end of every concert.
WoW❤
Our Great God. His greatness is unsearchable.

Thanks for sharing your testimony...He knows your name and more importantly, He knows your Heart. That's being bold in your Faith!

Amen! This is the hymn I want sung at my funeral. Yes - God is GREAT.

I just found your channel maybe 2 days ago. I love hymns, and you really bless me.
The most beautiful hymn ever written

One of my favorite also you feel the presence of GOD!!!
One of my favourites ❤️Thank you for the history of this beautiful hymn.

I believe that's what he sang
May the Lord help us to be ready for His second coming which is not far by the way.
When we shall be reunited with all our loved ones who died believing in Him.🙏🏿
Oh yes when He shall come in great acclamation!! Haleluya 🙌🏾
When I'm camping here in the Pacific Northwest, especially at the beach on a clear nights sky, this is the first song that comes to mind
This is one of my favourite hymns which was sang in our wedding day 2006.
I love this hymn. The bigger the universe gets the more glorious we know God's power is.
That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life; . . ."
Our senses are very reliable, and with them we understand this song's wonder at creation, both great and small, but oh that which is known in the heart, the greatest expression, which is His great love "wherewith He loved us" and sent His only Son to cloth us in that love.
My all time favorite hymn. Loved hearing how this beautiful hymn came into being.

This is my favorite song
Amazing......
I remember this from my youth and now this hymn is also sung in the Messianic synagogues. Joshua Aaron sings this hymn mightily.
9 verses- wow love to see them
Its my favourite hymn. 2nd comes Guide me. Which i pray for each day of my life Guide me, O thou great Redeemer,
pilgrim through this barren land;
I am weak, but thou art mighty;
hold me with thy powerful hand
Guide me O thou great Redeemer was ny dad’s choice of a hymn at his funeral. He was a man who lived in devoted service to His God. Only now do I realise the depth of truth in those words and How great our Redeemer is. Our witness to the next generation.
That's an amazing hymn, I did a video on it too: ruclips.net/video/GTvgtFS6SGY/видео.html
Beautiful!
I live Sandi Patty's rendition of How Great Thou Art. Sometimes at my church ⛪️, we blend this song with How Great is Our God by Chris Tomlin.
❤
Love this .very interesting.😇🇬🇧❤️🇮🇱
I love this Hymn...when i play in my keyboard... always i feel God's presence in the room.
All Glory to God.
Thank you so much.
Would appreciate if you could tell us what equipment you use to record this wonderful music. Thanks again
❤❤❤⚘️⚘️⚘️✝️⚘️⚘️⚘️❤️❤️❤️
I'm confused because a few books are describing that Stuart Hein was a missionary in West Ukraine, where there are Carpathian mountains.
I so love this song just makes me confused someone had tell me this song was made to adore Sa....n so please explain me why are they saying that?
The Bible says that the day of ones death is better than the day of ones birth....Amen.
..we have two grown children in heaven now before us and one son and his family in Texas....
in Swedish is one mening ”weaves the threads of life" then I think of DNA
Ok for lyrics but... who composed the music?
Please as u are explaining about this hymn I feel so sad when I hear other people change someone tune and whe I read how the writers of ma ny hymns how they struggled to make the tune the melody voices. I feel very very sorry I wish people should not change the tunes of the real tunes. God bless all and try to understand
Who wrote 'Mary, did you know'?

I'm wondering what you meant when you said Jesus was a man. I thought He was God
On Earth, Jesus came in the form of a man so that we can see that we were made in His and Father God's image.
Thank god
