Immortal, invisible

- Immortal, invisible, God only wise,
- In light inaccessible hid from our eyes,
- Most blessèd, 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 mountains high soaring above
- Thy clouds 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 naught 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.
- Immortal, invisible, God only wise,
- In light inaccessible hid from our eyes,
- Most blessèd, most glorious, the Ancient of Days,
- Almighty, victorious, Thy great name we praise
