1. O God, Thou art transcendent,
  The Holy One Thou art!
  None other is Thine equal,
  Incomp'rable Thou art!
  The holiest of the holy
  The universe may call!
  Thy power and Thy nature
  Do far exceed it all!
  
2. Distinct, unique, and holy,
  Not only right and pure;
  Not only without defect,
  But with perfection more;
  For nothing can approach Thee,
  Nor e'er Thine equal be;
  If aught Thy place hath taken,
  'Tis insult unto Thee.
  
3. The excellent excelling,
  The fairest of the fair,
  Yet differing from the finest,
  For none with Thee compare.
  From all the righteous different,
  For Thine is absolute;
  None beauteous with Thee vying,
  For Thine excels repute.
  
4. Thy holiness transcendent
  Thou hast for us prepared,
  And this distinctive nature
  We have already shared.
  We share in Thy transcendence,
  Since we Thy nature own;
  Thy holy life we follow
  Till unto fulness grown.
  
5. We give Thee praise and worship
  For all Thy holiness,
  For Thy transcendent nature,
  Thine utter peerlessness.
  We praise Thee that Thy nature ��
  Unique, distinct �� we share;
  This separating nature
  Is ours now and fore'er.
