When thro’ 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 hear the broke and feel the gentle breeze;
(Chorus)
And When I think that God, his Son not sparing, Sent Him to die, I scarce can take it in; That on that cross, my burden gladly bearing, He bled and died to take my away my sin
(Chorus)
When Christ shall come with shout of acclimation And take me home, what joy shall fill my heart! Then I shall bow in humble adoration And there proclaim, my God how great Thou art!
(Chorus)
