How Great Is Our God Chords & Tabs
Capo 1
The main idea of this is just a basic C but it changes after two down strokes and plays
3rd string open for one Down stroke then just fiddles with the bottom four strings then
it over once more. It cuts out a beat the second time through to make a transition from
C to the Am7 as shown below. Repeat the same 2 downstroke and lift of the 3rd string
fret as you did with the C and then do the same with the F also (There is no transition
the Am7 to the F).

You just need to Repeat this Throughout the song but when you get to the Chorus just go
a rythmic strumming and don't lift the 2nd fret but do make transition from the C to the Am7.
Verse 1:
C Am7
The splendor of the King, clothed in majesty,
F
Let all the earth rejoice, all the earth rejoice.
C Am7
He wraps Himself in light, and darkness tries to hide,
F
And trembles at his voice, trembles at his voice.
