Author: Brian Wren Meter: 7.8.7.8 with alleluias Appears in 43 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Christ, upon the mountain peak
stands alone in glory blazing.
Let us, if we dare to speak,
join the saints and angels praising: Alleluia!
2 Trembling at his feet we saw
Moses and Elijah speaking.
All the prophets and the law
shout through them their joyful greeting: Alleluia!
3 Swift the cloud of glory came,
God, proclaiming in its thunder,
Jesus as the Son by name!
Nations, cry aloud in wonder: Alleluia!
4 Jesus is the chosen One,
living hope of ev'ry nation,
hear and heed him, ev'ry one;
sing, with earth and all creation, Alleluia! Topics: Transfiguration; Christian year--Transfiguration Scripture: Matthew 17:1-8 Used With Tune: MOWSLEY
