Immortal, invisible, God only wise

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
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.
4
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.
5
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.

Beautiful, and Awesome song, am so blessed hearing a song like this in my generation. Truly Jesus Christ is the only wise God and the true life of all. Amen.

This great hymn is very touchy. Verses 1and 3 especially. For those who believe that the world belongs to them, let them meditate on verse 3 and they will have a rethink.

The name of the Lord is a strong tower...Forever shall His praise remain in my mouth for He is my only refuge...I reverence the Holy One forevermore...He is in control. Beautiful song extolling the Majesty of the Almighty God!

I am just coming into the knowledge of this hymn, and it is so touching.. simple tune, yet powerful words.

Walter Smith must have written this Hymn from the audible voice of God.

I slept and woke up this morning to found out that the same God "Immortal and Invisible" l left to sleep still present in my waking up ...

This has become one of my favourite hymns. Thanks for posting these lyrics. Was at work and just thought of this hymn.

This is what is Godly music, for worship. today's music has followed the secular music rhythm full of dancing, pride and unGodly practices, which are not gifted from the Holy Spirit.
