Immortal, Invisible, God Only Wise
Author: Walter Chambers Smith Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 211 hymnals Scripture: 1 Timothy 1:17 Lyrics: 1 Immortal, invisible, God only wise,
in light inaccessible hid from our eyes,
most blessed, most glorious, the Ancient of Days,
almighty, victorious, your great name we praise.
2 Unresting, unhasting, and silent as light,
nor wanting nor wasting, you rule day and night;
your justice like mountains high soaring above,
your clouds which are fountains of goodness and love.
3 Life-giving Creator of both great and small,
of all life the maker, the true life of all;
we blossom, then wither like leaves on the tree,
but you are forever, who was and will be.
4 We worship before you, great Father of light,
while angels adore you, all veiling their sight;
our praises we render, O Father, to you,
whom only the splendor of light hides from view.

Author: Dora Greenwell Meter: 8.8.8.7 Appears in 80 hymnals Scripture: 1 Timothy 1:15 Lyrics: 1 I am not skilled to understand
what God has willed, what God has planned;
I only know that at his right hand
is One who is my Savior!
2 I take him at his word indeed:
“Christ died for sinners,” this I read;
for in my heart I find a need
of him to be my Savior!
3 That he should leave his place on high
and come for sinful man to die,
you count it strange? So once did I,
before I knew my Savior!
4 And oh, that he fulfilled may see
the travail of his soul in me,
and with his work contented be,
as I with my dear Savior!
5 Yes, living, dying, let me bring
my strength, my solace from this spring;
that he who lives to be my King
once died to be my Savior.

From the Law I stand acquitted.
Christ hath purchased my release
And my ev'ry sin remitted.

I shall find an open heaven.

Who died to save us all.

What pains He had to bear;
But we believe it was for us
He hung and suffered there.
3 He died that we might be forgiven,
He died to make us good,
That we might go at last to heaven,
Saved by His precious blood.
4 There was no other good enough
To pay the price of sin;
He only could unlock the gate
Of heaven, and let us in.
5 O dearly, dearly has He loved,
And we must love Him too,
And trust in His redeeming blood,
And try His works to do.

Be Thy just and endless praise.
2 For the grandeur of Thy nature,
Grand beyond a seraph's thought;
For the wonders of creation,
Works with skill and kindness wrought;
For Thy providence, that governs,
Thru Thine empire's wide domain,
Wings an angel, guides a sparrow,
Blessed be Thy gentle reign.
3 Brightness of the Father's glory,
Shall Thy praise unuttered lie?
Break, my tongue, such guilty silence!
Sing the Lord who came to die.
From the highest throne of glory
To the cross of deepest woe,
All to ransom guilty captives;
Flow my praise, forever flow!
Amen. Topics: Worship Adoration and Praise; Adoration and Praise; God Creator; God Grace; God Providence Used With Tune: AUTUMN
Mighty God, While Angels Bless Thee
At the name of Jesus
Author: Carolin M. Noel, 1817-1877 Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Appears in 253 hymnals Scripture: 1 Timothy 1:15 Lyrics: 1 At the name of Jesus
every knee shall bow,
every tongue confess him
King of glory now:
'tis the Father's pleasure
we should call him Lord,
who from the beginning
was the mighty Word.
*2 At his voice creation
sprang at once to sight,
all the angel faces,
all the hosts of light,
thrones and dominations,
stars upon their way,
all the heavenly orders,
in their great array.
3 Humbled for a season,
to receive a name
from the lips of sinners
unto whom he came,
faithfully he bore it
spotless to the last,
brought it back victorious,
when from death he passed:
*4 Bore it up triumphant
with its human light,
through all ranks of creatures,
to the central height,
to the throne of Godhead,
to the Father's breast;
filled it with the glory,
of that perfect rest.
5 Name him, Christians, name him,
with love strong as death,
but with awe and wonder
and with bated breath:
he is God the Saviour,
he is Christ the Lord,
ever to be worshipped,
trusted, and adored.
*6 In your hearts enthrone him;
there let him subdue
all that is not holy,
all that is not true:
crown him as your Captain
in temptation's hour;
let his will enfold you
in its light and power.
7 Surely, this Lord Jesus
shall return again,
with his Father's glory,
with his angel train;
for all wreaths of empire
meet upon his brow,
and our hearts confess him
King of glory now. Topics: Lent II Year B; Easter VII Year C; Proper 5 Year A; Ascension Used With Tune: EVELYNS

yet to eternity standeth thy word;
falsehood and wrong shall not tarry beside thee;

earth shall to freedom and truth be restored;

My gracious, loving Lord
Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 34 hymnals Scripture: 1 Timothy 1:16 Lyrics: 1 My gracious, loving Lord,
To thee what shall I say?
Well may I tremble at thy word,
And scarce presume to pray.
2 Ten thousand wants have I;
Alas! I all things want!
But thou hast bid me always cry,
And never never faint.
3 Yet Lord, well might I fear,
Fear e'en to ask thy grace,
So oft have I, alas! drawn near,
And mock'd thee to thy face.
4 With all pollution stain'd,
Thy hallow'd courts I trod;
Thy name and temple I profan'd,
And dar'd to call thee God!
5 Nigh with my lips I drew:
My lips were all unclean;
Thee with my heat I never knew;
My heart was full of sin.
6 Far from the living Lord,
Far, far from God and heav'n,
Thy purity I still abhorr'd,
Nor look'd to be forgiv'n. Topics: Supplication for the divine mercy; To obtain mercy

The Gospel worthy of all Acceptation
Author: Dr. Gibbons Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 33 hymnals Scripture: 1 Timothy 1:15 First Line: Jesus, th' eternal Son of God Lyrics: 1 Jesus, th' eternal Son of God,
Whom Seraphim obey,
The bosom of the Father leaves,
And enters human clay.
2 Into our sinful world he comes
The Messenger of grace,
And on the bloody tree expires,
A victim in our place.
3 Transgressors of the deepest stain
In him salvation find:
His blood removes the foulest guilt,
His spirit heals the mind.
4 Our Jesus saves from sin and hell,
His words are true and sure,
And on this rock our faith may rest
Immoveably secure.
5 O let these tidings be receiv'd,
With universal joy,
And let the high angel praise
Our tuneful powers employ!
6 "Glory to God, who gave his Son"
"To bear our shame and pain:
"Hence peace on earth, and grace to men
"In endless blessings reign."
