The Infinity of God

Holy and Infinite ! Viewless, Eternal !
Veiled in the glory that none can sustain,
None comprehendeth Thy being supernal,
Nor can the heaven of heavens contain.

Holy and Infinite ! limitless, boundless
All Thy perfections, and power, and praise !
Ocean of mystery ! awful and soundless
All Thine unsearchable judgments and ways !

King of Eternity ! what revelation
Could the created and finite sustain,
But for Thy marvellous manifestation,
Godhead incarnate in weakness and pain !

Therefore archangels and angels adore Thee,
Cherubim wonder, and seraphs admire ;
Therefore we praise Thee, rejoicing before Thee,
Joining in rapture the heavenly choir.

Glorious in holiness, fearful in praises,
Who shall not fear Thee, and who shall not laud ?
Anthems of glory Thy universe raises,
Holy and Infinite ! Father and God !
