THE INSPECTORS

I GOT A SIGHT

I got a sight

Too fresh to me, but years ago

Walking through the backyard garden

There He stood alone, with backside to me

With height and splendour in display

Clad in sparkling white robe

 

Who could this be, wonder swept my heart?

Curious to know, he moved

We ran throughout the garden

Without a glimpse of his face

As he pace faster with yards apart

 

Suddenly heaven broke loose

Streams of praise from heights above

Distils like dew descends gently to the plain

Sweet melodies of Angelic beings saying;

 

Oh Lord my God, when am in awesome wonder

Consider all the works thy hands have made

I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder

Thy power throughout the universe displayed

 

Then sings my soul, my Saviour is God to thee

How great thou art, how great thou art

Then sing my soul, my Saviour is God to thee

How great thou art, how great thou art

 

When through the woods and forest gladly I wonder

I hear the birds sing sweetly in the trees

When I look down from lofty mountain grandeur

I see the brook I feel the gentle breeze

 

Then sings my soul, my Saviour is God to thee

How great thou art, how great thou art

Then sings my soul, my Saviour is God to thee

How great thou art, how great thou art

 

And when I think that God his son not sparing

Sent Him to die I scarce can take it in

That on the cross, my burden gladly bearing

He bled and died to take away my sin

 

Then sings my soul, my Saviour is God to thee

How great thou art, how great thou art

Then sings my soul, my Saviour is God to thee

How great thou art, how great thou art

 

When Christ shall come with shouts of acclamation

And take me home, what joy shall fill my heart

Then I shall bow in humble adoration

And there proclaim, my God how great thou art

 

Then sings my soul, my Saviour is God to thee

How great thou art, how great thou art

Then sings my soul, my Saviour is God to thee

How great thou art, how great thou art

 

Caught and lost in the melody

With body freeze to the ground void of speech

And atmosphere serene with deadly silence

Only a synchronized angelic beats

He turned with beaming smile

His face now I recall

Jesus the son of the Living God.

 

Oh dream I found out at last

Yet it was so real to fathom

As melody dissolves gently into my soul

To make everlasting impression
