O vision blest of heavenly light
Swiftly pass the clouds of glory
Author: Thomas H. Troeger, 1945- Hymnal: The Book of Praise #186 (1997) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Church Year Transfiguration Scripture: Matthew 17:1-12 Languages: English Tune Title: GENEVA
Swiftly pass the clouds of glory
We have come at Christ's own bidding
Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., 1944 Hymnal: The Book of Praise #187 (1997) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Church Year Transfiguration Lyrics: 1 We have come at Christ’s own bidding
to this high and holy place,
where we wait with hope and longing
for some token of God’s grace.
Here we pray for new assurance
that our faith is not in vain,
searching like those first disciples
for a sign both clear and plain.
2 Light breaks in upon our darkness;
splendor bathes the flesh-joined Word;
Moses and Elijah marvel
as the heavenly voice is heard.
Eyes and hearts behold with wonder
how the law and prophets meet:
Christ, with garments drenched in brightness,
stands transfigured and complete.
3 Strengthened by this glimpse of glory,
fearful lest our faith decline,
we like Peter find it tempting
to remain and build a shrine,
but true worship gives us courage
to proclaim what we profess,
that our daily lives may prove us
people of the God we bless. Scripture: Matthew 17:1-12 Languages: English Tune Title: BREWER

We Have Come at Christ’s Own Bidding
Come, Praise the Name of Jesus
Author: Christopher Idle Hymnal: Singing the New Testament #237 (2008) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Transfiguration of our Lord Lyrics: 1 Come, praise the name of Jesus
for all his gracious powers,
our only God and Savior
who makes his goodness ours;
he calls us to his kingdom,
the Lord of life and death,
to see his face in glory
and know him now by faith.
2 His virtue and his wisdom,
endurance, self-control,
his godliness and kindness,
his love which crowns them all —
this is his royal nature
that we are called to share,
his robe of perfect beauty
that we are given to wear.
3 We see his shining splendor
in every sunless place
where Christ, the light of nations,
appears in truth and grace.
Transfigured by his likeness
we make the vision known,
reflecting in our faces
the radiance of his own.
4 The king of grace inspires us
to love him more and more,
to grasp our hope more firmly
and make our calling sure.
Christ Jesus, Lord and Savior,
to this dark world you came;
and for the dawn of heaven,
we praise your holy name. Scripture: 2 Peter 1 Languages: English Tune Title: ELLACOMBE
Come, Praise the Name of Jesus
Lord, it is good for us to be
Author: Arthur P. Stanley Hymnal: The Hymnal #286 (1916) Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Topics: Holy Days The Transfiguration Lyrics:
Lord, it is good for us to be
High on the mountain here with thee;
Where stand revealed to mortal gaze
Those glorious saints of other days;
Who once received on Horeb's height
Th'eternal laws of truth and right;
Or caught the still small whisper, higher
Than storm, than earthquake, or than fire.
Lord, it is good for us to be
Entranced, enwrapt, alone with thee;
And watch thy glistering raiment glow
Whiter than Hermon's whitest snow,
The human lineaments that shine
Irradiant with a light divine:
Till we too change from grace to grace,
Gazing on that transfigured face.
Lord, it is good for us to be
Here on the holy mount with thee;
When darkling in the depths of night,
When dazzled with excess of light,
263
We bow before the heavenly voice
That bids bewildered souls rejoice,
Though love wax cold, and faith be dim,
"This is my Son; O hear ye him!"
Amen.

Lord, it is good for us to be
Glory, glory, hallelujah, glory, glory hallelujah
Author: Julia Ward Howe, 1819-1910 Hymnal: Together in Song #315 (1999) Meter: Irregular Topics: Jesus Christ Transfiguration First Line: Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord Lyrics: 1 Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord;
he is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored;
he has loosed the fateful lightning of his terrible swift sword:
his truth is marching on.
Refrain:
Glory, glory, hallelujah,
glory, glory, hallelujah,
glory, glory, hallelujah,
his truth is marching on.
2 He has sounded forth the trumpet that shall never call retreat;
he is sifting out the hearts of all before his judgment seat:
O be swift, my soul, to answer him; be jubilant, my feet!
Our God is marching on. [Refrain]
3 In the beauty of the lilies Christ was born across the sea,
with a glory in his bosom that transfigures you and me;
as he died to make us holy, let us live to make men free,
while God is marching on. [Refrain]
4 He is coming like the glory of the morning on the wave;
he is wisdom to the mighty; he is succour to the brave:
so the world shall be his foot-stool, and the soul of time his slave:
our God is marching on. [Refrain]
