Our hymn today is “How Great Thou Art”, chosen by Ann.  It is based on a Swedish traditional melody and a poem, written in Swedish by Carl Boberg in 1885.  Since then it has been translated into many languages.  The version which we sing in English was translated by Stuart K. Hine, who also added two verses of his own.  While you could call it an “old favourite”, it is also popular today with worship bands.  Come back tomorrow for our final Easter hymn!
