1.
Immortal, invisible, God only wise,
In light inaccessible hid from our eyes,
Most blessed, most glorious, the Ancient of Days,
Almighty, victorious, your great Name we praise.
2.
Unresting, unhasting, and silent as light,
Not wanting, nor wasting, you rule us in might;
Your justice, like mountains, high soaring above
Your clouds, which are fountains of goodness and love.
3.
You give life to all, Lord, to both, great and small;
Your life is in all, Lord, the true life of all;
We blossom and flourish as grass on the plain,
Then wither and perish; but you still remain.
4.
Great Father of glory, pure Father of light,
While angels adore you each veiling his face;
Our thanks Lord we render: all glory to you,
What heavenly splendour conceals from our view.
Immortal, Invisible, God Only Wise Lyrics
