Immortal, invisible, God only wise by Welsh Hymn Melody — Lyrics
About Immortal, invisible, God only wise
"Immortal, Invisible, God Only Wise" is a majestic hymn of praise that lifts the congregation's eyes toward the eternal nature of God. The text beautifully captures the mystery of the Almighty—describing a Creator who is "unresting, unhasting, and silent as light," hidden from us not by darkness, but by the overwhelming brilliance of His own glory.
In our parishes, this piece is a favorite for the entrance or recessional procession. The robust Welsh melody, St. Denio, gives the choir and congregation a strong, confident tune to sing together. As the voices build through the verses, moving from the quiet imagery of leaves on a tree to the grand vision of angels veiling their sight, it sets a tone of deep reverence and joyful worship for the Mass.
