Author: J. M. Neale Appears in 104 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O wondrous type! O vision fair:
Of glory that the Church shall share,
Which Christ upon the mountain shows
When brighter than the sun He glows.
2 From age to age the tale declare,
How with the three disciples there
Where Moses and Elias meet,
The Lord holds converse high and sweet.
3 With shining face and bright array,
Christ deigns to manifest to-day
What glory shall be theirs above,
Who joy in God with perfect love.
4 And faithful hearts are raised on high
By this great vision's mystery;
For which in joyful strains we raise
The voice of prayer, the hymn of praise.
5 O Father, with the eternal Son,
And Holy Spirit, ever One,
Vouchsafe to bring us by Thy grace
To see Thy glory face to face. Topics: Holy Days The Transfiguration Used With Tune: WALTHAM
