Immortal, invisible, God only wise,
in light inaccesible, 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 hasting, 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 like leaves on the tree,
then wither and perish, but naught changeth thee.
O, greatest in glory, high dwelling in light,
thine angels adore thee, all veiling their sight.
All laud we would render; O help us to see
only the splendor of light hideth thee!
