SMITH, WALTER CHAMBERS

Default Presentation Order #V1 V2 V3 V4 V1 -
[V1]
 G  C      Am D  Em   G/D   D7  G
 Im-mortal, invisible, God only wise,
 G  C      Am D   Em   G/D       D7  G
 In light inaccessible, hid from our eyes,||
 G            G/B   G                        D
 Most blessed, most glorious, the Ancient of Days,
  C        Am   D          G         D7  G
 Almighty, victorious, thy great name we praise. 
 
 
[V2]
 G  C      Am  D        Em  G/D   D7   G
 Unresting, Un-hasting, and silent as light,
 G  C         Am  D        Em   G/D   D7  G
 Nor wanting, nor wasting, thou rulest in might;||
 G          G/B   G                        D
 Thy justice like mountains high soaring above
     C             Am   D           G        D7  G
 Thy clouds, which are fountains of goodness and love.
 
 
[V3]
 G  C       Am   D      Em  G/D        D7  G
 To all life Thou givest, to both great and small;
 G  C       Am   D      Em   G/D      D7  G
 In all life Thou livest, the true life of all;
 G        G/B   G                        D
 We blossom and flourish as leaves on the tree,
     C    Am   D           G          D7   G
 And wither and perish, but nought changeth Thee.

 
[V4]
 G     C     Am D       Em  G/D    D7  G
 Great Father of glory, pure Father of light,
 G     C     Am D        Em   G/D     D7    G
 Thine angels adore Thee, all veiling their sight;||
 G            G/B   G                      D
 All praise we would render - O help us to see
      C   Am   D           G       D7   G
 'Tis only the splendor of light hideth Thee!
