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.

Most blessed, 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.
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 nought changeth Thee.
In all life Thou livest, the true life of all;

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 splendor of light hideth Thee.
Thine angels adore Thee, all veiling their sight;
All laud we would render, O help us to see:

Does anyone know if there is a version of this hymn in Spanish? I’ve been looking for but nothing. Sometimes hymns are named different in other languages.

My Father’s favorite hymn! I’ve always loved this hymn from childhood. The more I meditate on the wordings, the more I appreciate it. Indeed, God deserves all the honour and Adoration.
