who in thy sacrament dost deign to be;

Transfigured Christ, None Comprehends
Author: Alan Gaunt (1935-) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: 2 Corinthians 3:12-18, 4:1-2 Lyrics: 1 Transfigured Christ, none comprehends
your majesty, whose splendour stuns
all waking souls; whose light transcends
the brightness of a thousand suns!
2 You stand with Moses on the hill,
you speak of your new exodus.
The way through death, you will fulfil
by dying helpless on the cross.
3 You stand here with Elijah too,
by whom the still small voice was heard:
and you, yourself, will prove God true,
made mute in death, incarnate Word.
4 If we could bear your brightness here
and stay for ever in your light,
then we would conquer grief and fear,
and scorn the terrors of the night.
5 But, from the heights, you bring us down,
to share earth's agonies with you,
where piercing thorns are made your crown
and death, accepted, proves love true.
6 Majestic Christ, God's well-loved son,
if we must share your grief and loss,
transfigure us, when all is done,
with glory shining from your cross. Topics: Transfiguration Used With Tune: BROCKHAM

now night is over, his light is ascended:
ultimate sunrise, that floods all creation,
bringing his secret from death's desolation.
2 Night has made way for the great proclamation,
morning has broken, with songs of elation;
Christ comes in light from the depths of his prison,
death is abandoned, and Jesus is risen.
3 Stripped of the grave-clothes, the body now glorious,
rises immortal, for ever victorious;
come to fulfil all the prophets have spoken;
promise of life that will never be broken.
4 Weeping is over, and death is defeated,
life is recovered and joy is completed.
Guards, at the sepulchre, scatter before him;
Jesus is risen and angels adore him.
5 Highest, Most Holy, once lost and forsaken:
now, from the sleep of the dead you awaken;
angels appear at the tomb with the story:
"He is not here, but is risen in glory."

from whom and through whom and in whom, creation
looks for the joy which, in Christ, we inherit:
praising the Father, the Son and the Spirit! Topics: Easter (season); Ascension and Exaltation Used With Tune: O QUANTA QUALIA
