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!
