[[Full Lyrics]]

[Verse 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.

[Verse 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.

[Verse 3]
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.

[Verse 4]
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!
