Tune: Sine Nomine
(\'For all the saints\')
1 Timothy 6 v.15-16
**********
Continue on in the faith, Paul did say
To young Timothy, e\'en go on each day
Following Christ, He the Life, Truth, and Way
Alleluia, Alleluia!
Continue on until the appearing
Of Him, our Lord Jesus Christ, worship bring
To Him, He shall show, He the Lord, the King
Alleluia, Alleluia!
He is the blessed and only Potentate
All-powerful One, His return not late
Though our waiting, it may seem long to date*
Alleluia, Alleluia!
He the King of kings, He the Lord of lords
Ever reigning, he has of life the words
His praise and glory, let the sounds be heard
Alleluia, Alleluia!
He alone, He has immortality
Dwells in the light which no man can, so be
None can approach unto [in] state humanly
Alleluia, Alleluia!
No man has seen God, neither can man see
Christ in full light, honour unto Him be
And power be to Him e\'erlastingly
Alleluia, Alleluia!
