The hymn then became translated to German, to Russian, and then into English by English missionary Stuart Hine. He was inspired while working in Ukraine and hearing a congregation sing the song in Russian.
However, ‘How Great Thou Art’ did not gain worldwide popularity until George Beverly Shea performed it on a Billy Graham crusade in 1957.
Now the iconic words to ‘How Great Thou Art’ are performed in churches all across the globe.
“O Lord, my God, when I in awesome wonder
Consider all the worlds Thy Hands have made
