Immortal Invisible God Only Wise Catholic Traditional Hymn

Lyrics:

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 naught changeth thee.

4. Thou reignest in glory; thou dwellest in 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.

Nice rendition of one of my favorite Anglican hymns. In my (former) RC childhood I never heard this hymn in an RC mass. We did things like Hail Holy Queen and other 1960'songs they still used in the 70's. I see on your page you have many of those wonderful traditional hymns both we Episcopalians and RC (and to be fair other denominations) sing. May you grow in Christ.
