Weekly Hymn #11: Immortal, Invisible

Immortal, Invisible

by Walter Chalmers Smith


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


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


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


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!
