You have probably never seen “How Great Thou Art” performed
like this.
From Wikipedia:
“"How Great Thou Art" is a
Christian hymn based on a Swedish
poem written by Carl Gustav
Boberg (1859–1940) in Sweden in 1885. The melody is a Swedish folk
song. It was translated into English by British missionary Stuart K. Hine, who
also added two original verses of his own composition. It was popularized by George Beverly Shea
and Cliff Barrows
during the Billy Graham
crusades.[1]
It was voted the United Kingdom's
favourite hymn by BBC's
Songs of Praise.[2] "How Great Thou Art" was
ranked second (after "Amazing Grace")
on a list of the favorite hymns of all time in a survey by Today's Christian
magazine in 2001.”
