Hi!
This morning I had the words of the song "Shout To The Lord" going through my mind and I set out to find a good version to post here.
After some time of searching I finally found this beautiful Live version by the Oslo Gospel Choir.
The lyrics are shown in the video and have also been added at the bottom of this post.
Live Music Video: Carrie Underwood Performs How Great Thou Art
Hello!
Here is a powerful version of the classic Hymn "How Great Thou Art" sung by the talented and beautiful Carrie Underwood.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I do! (Lyrics posted below)
Psalms 63:3-4
The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork.
O Lord my God, When I in awesome wonder,
Consider all the worlds Thy Hands have made;
I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder,
Thy power throughout the universe displayed.
Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art.
Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art!

When through the woods, and forest glades I wander,
And hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees.
When I look down, from lofty mountain grandeur
And see the brook, and feel the gentle breeze.
Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art.
Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art!
And when I think of God, His Son not sparing;
Sent Him to die, I scarce can take it in;
That on the Cross, my burden gladly bearing,
He bled and died to take away my sin.
Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art.
Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art!
When Christ shall come, with shout of acclamation,
And take me home, what joy shall fill my heart.
Then I shall bow, with humble adoration,
And then proclaim: "My God, how great Thou art!"
Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art.
Then sings my soul, My Saviour God, to Thee,
How great Thou art, How great Thou art!
How great Thou art, How great Thou art!

Read more about the background story of how this hymn was written there as well.
Here is the intro paragraph:
"A young minister’s two-mile walk in the rain provided the inspiration for “How Great Thou Art.” The Reverend Carl Boberg of Monsteras, on the southeast coast of Sweden, was 25 years old when he wrote the lyrics of this song after trekking through a thunderstorm from a church meeting two miles away"

Christian Worship Music: In Christ Alone
![]() |
Antonio Ciseri's - Pontius Pilate presenting a scourged Christ to the people - 1871 |
Worship song In Christ Alone has a timeless feel to it. Enough so that some may wonder if it is an old Church Hymn.
But according to an article about it on Crosswalk.com the song was written in 2002 by Stuart Townend and Keith Getty.
It says there "that Townend and Getty both admit they are motivated by the idea of capturing biblical truth in songs and hymns that will not only cause people to express their worship in church, but will build them up in their Christian lives."
This version of the song is sung by Adrienne Liesching & Geoff Moore, and is set to scenes from The Passion Of The Christ.
Listen to the words and let it's message encourage and Bless you!
1 Corinthians 3:11
For no one can lay any foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ.

for at his command they were created,
6 and he established them for ever and ever—
he issued a decree that will never pass away.
7 Praise the Lord from the earth,
you great sea creatures and all ocean depths,
8 lightning and hail, snow and clouds,
stormy winds that do his bidding,
9 you mountains and all hills,
fruit trees and all cedars,
10 wild animals and all cattle,
small creatures and flying birds,
11 kings of the earth and all nations,
you princes and all rulers on earth,
12 young men and women,
old men and children.
you great sea creatures and all ocean depths,
8 lightning and hail, snow and clouds,
stormy winds that do his bidding,
9 you mountains and all hills,
fruit trees and all cedars,
10 wild animals and all cattle,
small creatures and flying birds,
11 kings of the earth and all nations,
you princes and all rulers on earth,
12 young men and women,
old men and children.
13 Let them praise the name of the Lord,
for his name alone is exalted;
his splendor is above the earth and the heavens.
14 And he has raised up for his people a horn,
the praise of all his faithful servants,
of Israel, the people close to his heart.
for his name alone is exalted;
his splendor is above the earth and the heavens.
14 And he has raised up for his people a horn,
the praise of all his faithful servants,
of Israel, the people close to his heart.
Praise the Lord.
