How Great Is Our God
by Chris Tomlin
Theology & Meaning
This classic modern worship song exalts the greatness of God, referencing His eternal nature, strength, and beauty. It hints at Trinitarian language and lifts up the name of Jesus among the nations. The simplicity of the lyric makes it easy for all ages to sing together while still pointing to deep truths.
Worship Leadership Tips
This is an anchor song that can be used almost anywhere in a gathering. It works well when your church needs a familiar moment or when you want a simple declaration everyone can grab. Invite older saints to sing out and let the younger ones feel the weight of a song that has served the church for years.
Arrangement Tips
It can be led very simply or with a full band, but the key is to keep the melody out front and singable. Resist the urge to over complicate it with too many tags. A key change can serve the room if it is not forced.
