How Great Thou Art performed by The Digital Age

The Story Behind the Song

The hymn How Great Thou Art traveled a long and winding road before it became the favorite hymn it is today. The original version was a poem written by a Swedish pastor, Reverend Carl Boberg in 1886, and entitled O Stor Gud. Boberg published the poem in his periodical Sanningsvittnet. Several years later he was surprised and delighted to hear his poem being sung by a church congregation, to the tune of an old Swedish folk melody.

Boberg’s poem was then translated into German by Manfred von Glehn, who aptly entitled it Wie gross bist Du. Finally in 1925, an American Reverend E. Gustav Johnson translated the Swedish poem into an English version that was still somewhat different from the one popular today.
