Author: Walter Chalmers Smith, 1824-1908 Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #35 (1961) 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, 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 Great Father of Glory, pure Father of Light,
Thine angels adore thee, all veiling their sight;
All praise we would render; O help us to see
'Tis only the splendor of light hideth thee! Topics: Adoration; God Being of; God Divine Perfections of; God Glory of; God Wisdom of Scripture: 1 Timothy 1:17 Languages: English Tune Title: JOANNA
