LYRICS
How beautiful in the heavens are Your works, O God.
How marvelous Your glory in the skies.
In every star that twinkles I’m amazed at who You are,
By Your power on display before my eyes.
I consider then, Your greatness, and how wise You must be
To uphold all things and order their time.
In every corner of the cosmos You are great and mighty
It’s so obvious that You are Divine.
And I’m overwhelmed by You.
Words cannot express it, my heart can’t contain it.
I’m so overwhelmed by You.
Hmmm. Hmmm.
Then I open up the scriptures You have given and I read
Of Your love for all that You have made,
How He, who formed the heavens walked the earth just like me;
Into our fallen world You came to save.
And I consider then, Your kindness, Your answer to our need,
Of Your love for sinners such as I.
And the stars pale in greatness to the mercy that I see
When on the cross, for me, Jesus died.
And I’m overwhelmed by love.
Words cannot express it, my heart can’t contain it.
I’m so overwhelmed by love.
Hmmm. Hmmm.
I see how the story ends, You come to take us home.
And there we dwell forever with You.
How unspeakable the glory of those days yet to come.
How more brilliant then, the stars will shine when You make all things new.
And I’m overwhelmed with hope.
Words cannot express it, my heart can’t contain it.
I’m so overwhelmed with hope.
Hmmm. Hmmm.
I’m overwhelmed by You.
Words cannot express it. My heart is bursting.
I’m so overwhelmed by You.
Hmmm. Hmmm.
