Spirituality of God

John Needham • English

Primary Scripture: Psalm 107:43

Verse 1

Thou art, O God! a Spirit pure, Invisible to mortal eyes; The immortal, and the eternal King, The great, the good, the only wise.

Verse 2

Whilst nature changes, and her works Corrupt, decay, dissolve, and die, Thy essence pure no change shall see, Secure of immortality.

Verse 3

Thou great Invisible! what hand Can draw thy image spotless fair? To what in heaven, to what on earth, Can men the immortal King compare?

Verse 4

Let stupid heathens frame their gods Of gold and silver, wood and stone; Ours is the God that made the heaven; Jehovah he, and God alone.

Verse 5

My soul, the purest homage pay, In truth and spirit him adore; More shall this please than sacrifice, Than outward forms delights him more.
