For You
“I can’t imagine living a life without God in my life. He is my best friend, He’s my buddy, He’s the one that I talk to when there’s no one around. I talk to Him when people are around a lot too. He’s my confidant, He’s my advisor, He’s my director. I just don’t know why you wouldn’t want that in your life. He’s just like a bodyguard, He is your protector.”

The Origin of “How Great Thou Art”
“How Great Thou Art” is a Christian song penned by Carl Boberg in 1885. He was inspired to write this song of praise after he encountered a storm. He heard church bells ringing, the sound of birds singing, and he look at the beauty of the world after the storm. This gave him the inspiration to come up with a beautiful song to thank God of His greatness.
