Sing of God Made Manifest

Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., 1944- Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 7 hymnals Scripture: Luke 9:28-36 Lyrics: 1 Sing of God made manifest in a child robust and blest, to whose home in Bethlehem where a star had guided them, Magi came and gifts unbound, signs mysterious and profound: myrrh and frankincense and gold grave and God and King foretold. 2 Sing of God made manifest when at Jordan John confessed, "I should be baptized by you, but your bidding I will do." Then from heaven a double sign-- dove-like Spirit, voice divine-- hailed the true Anointed One: "This is my beloved Son." 3 Sing of God made manifest when Christ came as wedding guest and at Cana gave a sign, turning water into wine; further still was love revealed as he taught, forgave, and healed, bringing light and life to all who would listen to God's call. 4 Sing of God made manifest on the cloud capped mountain's crest, where the law and prophets waned so that Christ alone remained: glimpse of glory, pledge of grace, given as Jesus set his face towards the waiting cross and grave, sign of hope that God would save.

Transfigured Christ, None Comprehends

Author: Alan Gaunt (1935-) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Luke 9:28-36 Lyrics: 1 Transfigured Christ, none comprehends your majesty, whose splendour stuns all waking souls; whose light transcends the brightness of a thousand suns! 2 You stand with Moses on the hill, you speak of your new exodus. The way through death, you will fulfil by dying helpless on the cross. 3 You stand here with Elijah too, by whom the still small voice was heard: and you, yourself, will prove God true, made mute in death, incarnate Word. 4 If we could bear your brightness here and stay for ever in your light, then we would conquer grief and fear, and scorn the terrors of the night. 5 But, from the heights, you bring us down, to share earth's agonies with you, where piercing thorns are made your crown and death, accepted, proves love true. 6 Majestic Christ, God's well-loved son, if we must share your grief and loss, transfigure us, when all is done, with glory shining from your cross.
