IMMORTALITY OF THIS GREAT GOD


IMMORTAL, INVISIBLE GOD

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

Unresting, unhasting and silent as light,
Nor wanting, nor wasting Thou rulest in might!
Thy justice like mountain high soaring above,
Thy cloud which are fountains of goodness and love

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

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 splendour of light hideth Thee.
