The first literal English translation by E. Gustav Johnson was published in the United States in 1925. The hymn had also become known in Germany and Russia, where the British missionary, Stuart K. Hine, serving in the Ukraine, was inspired to create his English paraphrase in the late '60's known as "How Great Thou Art." Several years later, he was surprised to hear it sung with an old Swedish melody, with which it has been associated ever since.
The tune used here is "Londonderry Air", an air that originated in the 1850's from County Londonderry in Ireland (now Northern Ireland). It is popular among the Irish diaspora and is very well known throughout the world. The song "Danny Boy" uses the tune, as well as Dottie Rambo's song "He Looked Beyond My Fault and Saw My Need".
This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters.
