Come to the Mountain Peak (A Hymn for Transfiguration Sunday)
Christ's Transfiguration
Author: Dr. Doddridge Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CXXXV (1792) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Transfiguration of Christ First Line: When at this distance, Lord, we trace Lyrics: 1 When at this distance, Lord, we trace
The various glories of thy face,
What transport pours o'er all our breast,
And charms our cares and woes to rest.
2 With thee in the obscurest cell
On some bleak mountain would I dwell,
Rather than pompous courts behold,
And share their grandeur and their gold.
3 Away, ye dreams of mortal joy!
Raptures divine my thoughts employ:
I see the King of glory shine;
And feel his love, and call him mine.
4 On tabor, thus his servants view'd
His lustre, when transform'd he stood;
And, bidding earthly scenes farewel,
Cries, "Lord, 'tis pleasant here to dwell."
5 Yet still our elevated eyes
To nobler visions long to rise;
That grand Assembly would we join,
Where all thy saints around thee shine.
6 That mount how bright! those forms how fair!
'Tis good to dwell for ever there:
Come, death, dear envoy of my God,
And bear me to that blest abode. Scripture: Matthew 17:4 Languages: English

Let us, if we dare to speak,

All the prophets and the law
shout through them their joyful greeting.

praise and glory to our Lord!
[* Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!]
Jesus as the Son by name:
nations, cry aloud in wonder.

living hope of ev'ry nation,
hear and heed him, ev'ryone;
sing with earth and all creation:

We Have Come at Christ's Own Bidding
Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr. Hymnal: The New Century Hymnal #182 (1995) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Jesus Christ Transfiguration; Transfiguration; Year A Epiphany Last / Transfiguration; Year B Epiphany Last / 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 through our clouds and shadows,
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.

Once on a mountain top
Once on a mountain-top
Author: Michael Hewlett (b. 1916) Hymnal: New Church Praise #75 (1975) Meter: 6.6.8.5.6.6.8.4 Topics: Transfiguration Lyrics: 1 Once on a mountain-top
there stood three startled men
who saw the veil of nature drop
and heaven shine in.
Their friend of every day,
the face they knew for his,
they saw for one half-hour the way
he always is.
2 Yet men have lived and died
and found of God no trace.
'Thou art a God' (the prophet cried)
'who hidest thy face.'
The earth lies all explored,
the heavens are ours to climb;
and still no man has seen his God
at any time.
3 And minds that learn to scan
creation like a book
say nothing lives outside their plan
and so never look.
O Lord of hidden light,
forgive us who despise
the things which lie beyond our sight,
and give us eyes. Languages: English Tune Title: TRANSFIGURATION

Author: John Mason Neale Hymnal: The New Century Hymnal #184 (1995) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Jesus Christ Transfiguration; Transfiguration; Year A Epiphany Last / Transfiguration; Year B Epiphany Last / Transfiguration Lyrics: 1 O wondrous sight, O vision fair
of glory that the church shall share,
Which Christ upon the mountain shows,
where brighter than the sun, Christ glows!
2 From age to age the tale declare,
how with the three disciples there,
Where Moses and Elijah meet,
they with the Christ God's future greet.
3 The law and prophets there have place,
two chosen witnesses of grace;
the Father's voice from out the cloud
proclaims the Human One aloud.
4 With shining face and bright array
Christ deigns to manifest today
what glory shall be theirs beyond,
who live within God's loving bond.
5 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. Scripture: Luke 9:28-36 Languages: English Tune Title: DEO GRACIAS

Lord, It Is Good for Us To Be
Author: Arthur Penrhyn Stanley Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #204 (1926) Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Topics: Transfiguration; Christ Transfiguration on; Transfiguration of Christ Lyrics: 1 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.
2 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.
3 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,
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. Scripture: Matthew 17:1-8 Languages: English Tune Title: GÖR PORTEN HÖG, GÖR DÖRREN BRED

Lord Jesus, on the Holy Mount
Author: John Anketell Hymnal: The Hymnal and Order of Service #205 (1926) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Transfiguration; Christ Transfiguration on; Transfiguration of Christ Lyrics: 1 Lord Jesus, on the holy mount
We would abide with Thee,
Still drinking from the blessed fount
Of grace, so rich and free.
2 There prophets praise Thy glorious Name,
And deeds which Thou hast done;
And there the Father's words proclaim
His own beloved Son.
3 The rays of Thy transfigured face
Beam with such golden light
That we would never leave the place,
Nor lose the heavenly sight.
4 But there is work on earth to do,
The suffering souls to heal;
The harvest great, the laborers few
Thy kingdom to reveal.
5 We may not linger on the mount,
Where bright Thy glories shine;
We may not taste the sacred fount
Of blessedness divine.
6 But let some beams of heavenly light
Make bright our earthly way;
Then grant the beatific sight
Of heaven the endless day.
Amen. Scripture: Matthew 17:1-8 Languages: English Tune Title: SERENITY
