Immortal, Invisible, God Only Wise
Author: Walter Chalmers Smith (1824-1908) Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 215 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 27 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,
then wither and perish, but nought changeth thee.
4 Great Source of all glory and wisdom and 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. Topics: Angels; Praise of God Used With Tune: ST DENIO

Lord, Thy Word Abideth
Author: Henry Williams Baker Meter: 6.6.6.6 Appears in 205 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 27 Lyrics: 1 Lord, thy Word abideth and our footsteps guideth;
who its truth believeth light and joy receiveth.
When our foes are near us, then thy Word doth cheer us;
word of consolation, message of salvation.
2 When the storms are o'er us, and dark clouds before us,
then its light directeth, and our way protecteth.
Who can tell the pleasure, who recount the treasure,
by thy Word imparted to the simple-hearted?
3 Word of mercy, giving succor to the living;
Word of life, supplying comfort to the dying!
O that we, discerning its most holy learning,
Lord, may love and fear thee, evermore be near thee.

What equal honours shall we bring
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 180 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 27:8-9 Lyrics:
What equal honors shall we bring
To thee, O Lord our God, the Lamb,
When all the notes that angels sing
Are far inferior to thy name?
Worthy is he that once was slain,
The Prince of Peace that groaned and died;
Worthy to rise, and live, and reign
At his Almighty Father's side.
Power and dominion are his due
Who stood condemned at Pilate's bar;
Wisdom belongs to Jesus too,
Though he was charged with madness here.
All riches are his native right,
Yet he sustained amazing loss;
To him ascribe eternal might,
Who left his weakness on the cross.
Honor immortal must be paid,
Instead of scandal and of scorn;
While glory shines around his head,
And a bright crown without a thorn.
Blessings for ever on the Lamb
Who bore the curse for wretched men;
Let angels sound his sacred name,
And every creature say, Amen.

Like a River Glorious

is God's perfect peace,
over all victorious
in its bright increase:
perfect, yet it floweth
fuller every day,
perfect, yet it groweth
deeper all the way.
Refrain:
Stayed upon Jehovah,
hearts are fully blest,
finding, as he promised,
perfect peace and rest.
2 Hidden in the hollow
of his blessed hand,
never foe can follow,
never traitor stand;
not a surge of worry,
not a shade of care,
not a blast of hurry
touch the spirit there. [Refrain]
3 Every joy or trial
falleth from above,
traced upon the dial
by the Sun of Love;
we may trust him fully
all for us to do;
those who trust him wholly
find him wholly true. [Refrain] Topics: Promise & Hope Used With Tune: WYE VALLEY

Who would true valour see
Author: John Bunyan, 1628-88 Meter: 6.5.6.5.6.6.6.5 Appears in 155 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 27 Lyrics: 1 Who would true valour see,
let them come hither;
those here will constant be,
come wind, come weather.
There's no discouragement
shall make them once relent
each from a vowed intent
to be a pilgrim.
2 Those who beset them round
with dismal stories
cannot the brave confound:
their strength the more is.
No lion can them fright,
they'll with a giant fight,
but each will have a right
to be a pilgrim.
3 Hobgoblin nor foul fiend
can daunt their spirit:
they know they at the end
shall life inherit.
Then fancies fly away;
they'll scorn what people say,
and each work night and day
to be a pilgrim. Topics: Saints Days and Holy Days Any Saint Used With Tune: MONK'S GATE
