The Church Pianist: Free Arrangement of How Great Thou Art in G Major (part one)
I’m offering another free arrangement entitled “How Great Thou Art” to church pianists. This will be part one.
How many church pianists have needed to play How Great Thou Art in a lower key? I have… plenty of times. I usually play How Great Thou Art in G major when accompanying male solos. Altos also like this key.
This free arrangement (part one) is written at a basic level; allowing the pianist freedom to add their own embellishments. The arrangement contains chords not found in the hymnal version of “How Great Thou Art”.
Church pianists are always needing hymns in lower keys. Periodically, I will provide such arrangements.

Thank you so much! This is so helpful! I just started playing for our church and this is so perfect!
Thank you so very much! I have been asked at the last minute to accompany a vocal solo of “How Great Thou Art” at a funeral this afternoon and the version in our hymn book is too high. I searched online for “How Great Thou Art” in G and I found your arrangement. It’s perfect and I can’t thank you enough for providing it for free! You saved me today! Thanks again!
Thank you. This saved me a bit of work!
Thanks so much, you saved the day! I needed it this week and it really helped me out so that our pianist did not have to do this by ear.
Thanks, you saved the day for our pianist– who would have had to figure this out on her own.
