Immortal, Invisible, God Only Wise

So once did I, before I knew my Savior! 4 And oh, that he fulfilled may see the travail of his soul in me, and with his work contented be, as I with my dear Savior! 5 Yes, living, dying, let me bring my strength, my solace from this spring; that he who lives to be my King once died to be my Savior.
