Immortal, Invisible, God Only Wise

Author: Walter C. Smith Hymnal: NCH1995 #1 (1995) Meter: 11.11.11.11 Lyrics: 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, not wasting, but ruling in might; Your justice like mountains high soaring above, your clouds which are fountains of goodness and love. 3 Your life is life-giving - to both great and small; in all life you're living, the true life of all; We blossom and flourish as leaves and as flowers, then wither and perish - but naught dims your powers. 4 So perfect your glory, so brilliant your light, your angels adore you, all veiling their sight; All praise we now render as your angels do: in awe at the splendor of light hiding you.
