Tomlin has since released four solo worship albums, two Christmas albums, and one live album.

Tomlin has recorded some of the most famous songs ever in Christian music, such as How Great Is Our God, Holy Is The Lord, Our God, and Whom Shall I Fear (God of Angel Armies)

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Across the sky is written your majesty and praise
And still you move in mercy and hear the humble heart
For every soul that’s searching, Jesus there you are
Your beauty fills the sky
Your glory reigns in brilliant light
Great God of countless wonders
Your beauty fills the sky
Your glory reigns in brilliant light
Great God of countless wonders
I will lift my eyes
The mysteries of heaven and all your works displayed
Every star, every ocean, the universe proclaims
For every sun that rises, your faithfulness to me
Like the changing of the seasons, like the river to the sea
Your beauty fills the sky
Your glory reigns in brilliant light
Great God of countless wonders
I will lift my eyes, lift my eyes
No one can fathom all your mighty works O God
Just one glimpse of You and I am overcome
You open up your hand and pour out once again
Your everlasting love
Your beauty fills the sky
Your glory reigns in brilliant light
Great God of countless wonders
I will lift my eyes
Your beauty fills the sky
