Lord, it is good for us to be

Author: Arthur P. Stanley Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Appears in 69 hymnals 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. Topics: Holy Days The Transfiguration Used With Tune: ST. CASIMER

Refrain: I shall not die—on Jesus’ breast I’ll fall asleep, and there I’ll rest; Though I should sink beneath the sod, My life is hid with Christ in God. 2 He that believes, though he were dead, Shall rise again, as Jesus said; His word is true, He cannot lie; He that believes shall never die. [Refrain] 3 When cares and toils are all laid down, My dust is molding in the ground, There in the presence of His Son; I shall not die, but I’ll live on.
