We just learned about the hymn Amazing Grace by John Newton.
Another famous hymn is How Great Thou Art by Carl Boberg, written in Sweden in 1885.
One day when Boberg was walking outside, a huge storm came along with dark clouds, thunder, and lightning.
The storm got over pretty quickly, and then right after there was a rainbow, and birds singing happily.
When he saw the power of the storm and then the beauty of nature after, it gave him the idea for the song.
