Today’s hymn sung
by St Martins in the Fields is:

Immortal, invisible, God only wise

sung by St Martin’s Voices

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 changest thee.

4 Great Father of glory, pure Father of light,

thine angels adore thee, all veiling their sight

all laud we would render: O help us to see

'tis only the splendour of light hideth thee.

Walter Chalmers Smith (1824-1908)
