Something written by Rick Robertson; with thoughts by A. W. W. Tozer (in part):

"Great is the Lord,
and greatly to be praised;
and his greatness is unsearchable."

~ Psalm 145:3 (KJV)

Here Tozer cites the following attributes of God and there are many more:

God is holy.

"Holy is the way God is. To be holy He does not conform to a standard. He is that standard. He is absolutely holy with an infinite, incomprehensible fullness of purity that is incapable f being other than it is."

God is eternal.

"The mind looks backward in time until the dim past vanishes, then turns and looks into the future until thought and imagination collapse from exhaustion, and God is at both points, unaffected by either."

God is infinite.

"When we say that God is infinite, we mean that He knows no bounds. Whatever God is and all that God is, He is without limit."

God is omnipotent.

"Since God is also infinite, whatever he has must be without limit, therefore God has limitless power. He is omnipotent."

God is omnipresent.

"God is everywhere here, close to everything, next to everyone."

God is transcendent.

"When we speak of God as transcendent, we mean of course that He is exalted far above the created universe, so far above that human thought cannot imagine it."

"And we rebelled against this God; instead of casting us away forever, He sent His one and only Son to die as a sacrifice for our rebellion, our sin. As Christians, you and I live each day under the banner of this God's love, not His wrath."
