Hymn 38 — Blessed God, above creation,
| 38 | J. WATSON Adapted | 8.7.8.7. |
| 1 |
Blessed God, above creation, Infinite, inscrutable, Thou in light, beyond relation, Unapproachable dost dwell. | |
| 2 |
When Thou dost behold in heaven And on earth the things that are, It is said, Thyself Thou humblest -- O Thy grace beyond compare! | |
| 3 |
Who to Thee hath given counsel? Who Thy mind hath ever known? Not to any Thou accountest Of the things that are Thine own. | |
| 4 |
But the glory of Thy greatness Finds in love its counterpart: Jesus' death th'eternal witness To the feelings of Thy heart. | |
| 5 |
Wonder of the incarnation! Thou art now in Christ revealed. Universal adoration Be its everlasting yield! | |
