21- Immortal, Invisible, God Only Wise

Worship: Adoration and Praise

1

  • Immortal, invisible, God only wise,
  • In light inaccessible hid from our eyes.
  • Most blessed, most glorious, the Ancient of Days,
  • Almighty, victorious, Thy great name we praise.

2

  • Unresting, unhasting, and silent as light,
  • Nor wanting, nor wasting, Thou rulest in might;
  • Thy justice, like mountains, high soaring above
  • Thy clouds, which are fountains of goodness and love.

3

  • To all life Thou givest to both great and small;
  • In all life Thou livest, the true life of all;
  • We blossom and flourish, like leaves on the tree,
  • Then wither and perish; but naught changeth Thee.

4

  • Great Father of glory, pure Father of light,
  • Thine angels adore Thee, all veiling their sight;
  • All laud we would render; O help us to see
  • 'Tis only the splendor of light hideth Thee.
