There have been numerous renditions of "How Great Thou Art," a gospel song that displays love and honor for the Lord. This percussion group took the song to another level by singing in a way that made the audience rise to their feet.

StikYard is a group of musicians, comprised mostly of members who play the drums. During a recent performance, they asked a few singers and other musicians to join them on stage to sing the beloved hymn.

As the group is drumming away, the sound can be heard clearly around the entire theater in a way that is mesmerizing and humbling. The singers paired well with the sounds of the instruments.

StikYard wasn't always a successful music group. They started small and quickly added more members who share a love of music with each other. Each of the instruments that are used is designed in a different way. These unique images result in a stunning display of lights and sound on the stage instead of the traditional drums that you hear from bands.

The group has played for sporting events and has performed in smaller settings for those who have a desire to listen to the individual beats associated with the drums and the other instruments that are used.

While listening to the song, you can almost hear the life that is pumped into each verse as the singers match the tones of the drums. With the lights down low, you can focus more on the song instead of the details of the band members:
