Verse 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.
Verse 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.

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!

170. Fairest Lord Jesus
Verse 1
Fairest Lord Jesus, Ruler of all nature,
Son of God and Son of Man!
Thee will I cherish, thee will I honor,
Thou, my soul's glory, joy, and crown.
Verse 2
Fair are the meadows, fair are the Woodlands,
Robed in the blooming garb of spring:
Jesus is fairer, Jesus is purer,
Who makes the woeful heart to sing.
Verse 3
Fair is the sunshine, fair is the moonlight,
And all the twinkling, starry host:
Jesus shines brighter, Jesus shines purer
Than all the angels heav'n can boast.
Verse 4
Beautiful Savior! Lord of the nations!
Son of God and Son of Man!
Glory and honor, praise, adoration,
Now and for evermore be thine.
