Immortal, Invisible, God Only Wise

by admin on Apr.20, 2009, under I-L

Immortal, invisible, God only wise,
in light inaccessible hid from our eyes,
most blessed, most glorious, the Ancient of Days,
almighty, victorious, thy great name we praise.

Unresting, unhasting, and silent as light,
nor wanting, nor wasting, thou rulest in might;
thy justice like mountains high soaring above
thy clouds which are fountains of goodness and love.
 
To all, life thou givest, to both great and small;
in all life thou livest, the true life of all;
we blossom and flourish as leaves on the tree,
and wither and perish, but naught changeth thee.

Thou reignest in glory; thou dwellest in light;
thine angels adore thee, all veiling their sight;
all laud we would render:  O help us to see
’tis only the splendor of light hideth thee.

And can it be that I should gain

by admin on Apr.20, 2009, under A-D

And can it be that I should gain
an interest in the Savior’s blood!
Died he for me? who caused his pain!
For me? who him to death pursued?
Amazing love! How can it be
that thou, my God, shouldst die for me?
Amazing love! How can it be
that thou, my God, shouldst die for me?

‘Tis mystery all: th’ Immortal dies!
Who can explore his strange design?
In vain the firstborn seraph tries
to sound the depths of love divine.
‘Tis mercy all! Let earth adore;
let angel minds inquire no more.
‘Tis mercy all! Let earth adore;
let angel minds inquire no more.

He left his Father’s throne above
(so free, so infinite his grace!),
emptied himself of all but love,
and bled for Adam’s helpless race.
‘Tis mercy all, immense and free,
for O my God, it found out me!
‘Tis mercy all, immense and free,
for O my God, it found out me!

Long my imprisoned spirit lay,
fast bound in sin and nature’s night;
thine eye diffused a quickening ray;
I woke, the dungeon flamed with light;
my chains fell off, my heart was free,
I rose, went forth, and followed thee.
My chains fell off, my heart was free,
I rose, went forth, and followed thee.

No condemnation now I dread;
Jesus, and all in him, is mine;
alive in him, my living Head,
and clothed in righteousness divine,
bold I approach th’ eternal throne,
and claim the crown, through Christ my own.
Bold I approach th’ eternal throne,
and claim the crown, through Christ my own.

My God, my Father, my Rock, I praise Thee, I glorify Thee

by admin on Jan.02, 2009, under Your Praises

Was listening to this song by New Heart (a Chinese Christian recording) below and was touched by the lyrics. Sing to the Lord!

我的神,我的父,我的磐石,我敬拜祢,
祢的慈愛、豐盛的慈愛,
永遠屹立不變,建立到萬代;
我的神,我的父,我的拯救,我讚美祢,
祢的信實恆久的信實,
永永遠遠堅立在天上。
 我要歡呼,向祢舉雙手,
向祢揚聲高唱:「哈利路亞」,
因祢喜悅我們,是我的力量、
榮耀,願在光明中與祢同行。
我要歡呼,向祢舉雙手,
向祢揚聲高唱:「哈利路亞」,
祢是我的主宰,誰能與我的神相比?
我一生向祢俯伏敬拜

Loosely translated into:
My God, My Father, my rock (foundation), I praise thee, I glorify Thee.
Your love, Your fullsome love to me
is ever lasting

My God, My Father, my rescuer, I praise Thee, I glorify Thee.
Your faithfulness, is everlasting

I want to shout out and praise Thee
With both my hands raised, I sing Halleluia!
Your love to me is where i draw my strength,
in the light I walk with Thee

I want to shout out and praise Thee
With both my hands raised, I sing Halleluia!
Your are my Lord, who can compare with You
All my life I praise Thee.
