“Immortal, Invisible, God Only Wise”
Words: Walter C. 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.
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!

“O the Deep, Deep Love of Jesus”
S. Trevor Francis, 1875
O the deep, deep love of Jesus, vast, unmeasured, boundless, free!
Rolling as a mighty ocean in its fullness over me!
Underneath me, all around me, is the current of Thy love
Leading onward, leading homeward to Thy glorious rest above!
O the deep, deep love of Jesus, spread His praise from shore to shore!
How He loveth, ever loveth, changeth never, nevermore!
How He watches o’er His loved ones, died to call them all His own;
How for them He intercedeth, watcheth o’er them from the throne!
O the deep, deep love of Jesus, love of every love the best!
’Tis an ocean full of blessing, ’tis a haven giving rest!
O the deep, deep love of Jesus, ’tis a heaven of heavens to me;
And it lifts me up to glory, for it lifts me up to Thee!

“HALLELUJAH! THINE THE GLORY”
William P. MacKay
We praise thee, O God!
For the days of our youth,
For the bright lamp that shineth—
The Word of thy truth.
Hallelujah! thine the glory,
Hallelujah we sing;
Hallelujah! thine the glory,
Our praise now we bring.
We praise thee, O God!
For the Son of thy love,
For Jesus who died
And is now gone above.
We praise thee, O God!
For thy Spirit of light,
Who has shown us our Saviour
And scattered our night.
All glory and praise
To the Lamb that was slain,
Who has borne all our sins and
Has cleansed ev'ry stain!
