Immortal, Invisible God Only Wise Hymn 32
1st Stanza Immortal, invisible, God only wise, In light inaccessible hid from our eyes,
1st Stanza continued Most blessed, most glorious, the Ancient of Days, Almighty, victorious, Thy great name we praise.
2nd Stanza Unresting, unhasting, and silent as light, Nor wanting, nor wasting, Thou rulest in might;
2nd Stanza continued Thy justice like mountains high soaring above, Thy clouds which are fountains of goodness and love.
3rd Stanza To all life Thou givest, to both great and small; In all life Thou livest, the true life of all;
3rd Stanza continued We blossom and flourish as leaves on the tree, And wither and perish, but nought changeth Thee.
4th Stanza Great Father of Glory, pure Father of Light, Thine angels adore Thee, all veiling their sight;
4th Stanza continued All laud we would render; O help us to see ’Tis only the splendour of light hideth Thee.
Last Stanza Immortal, invisible, God only wise, In light inaccessible hid from our eyes,
Last Stanza continued Most blessed, most glorious, the Ancient of Days, Almighty, victorious, Thy great name we praise.

Scripture Reading in Unison John 4:19-26
19 The woman saith unto him, Sir, I perceive that thou art a prophet.
20 Our fathers worshipped in this mountain; and ye say, that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought to worship.
21 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.
22 Ye worship ye know not what: we know what we worship: for salvation is of the Jews.
23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
25 The woman saith unto him, I know that Messias cometh, which is called Christ: when he is come, he will tell us all things.
26 Jesus saith unto her, I that speak unto thee am he.
