Jesus on the Mountain Peak

Author: Brian Wren Hymnal: VU1996 #102 (1996) Meter: 7.8.7.8.4 Lyrics: 1 Jesus on the mountain peak stands alone in glory blazing; let us, if we dare to speak, join the saints and angels praising. Hallelujah! 2 Trembling at his feet we saw Moses and Elijah speaking. All the prophets and the law shout through them their joyful greeting: Hallelujah! 3 Swift the cloud of glory came, God proclaiming, in its thunder, Jesus as the Son by name! Nations, cry aloud in wonder: Hallelujah! 4 This is God's beloved son! Law and prophets sing before him, first and last and only One. All creation shall adore him! Hallelujah!

Yet we may not remain; but since you bid us leave the mount come with us to the plain.

We Have Come at Christ's Own Bidding

Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr. Hymnal: VU1996 #104 (1996) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D 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, splendour 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.

Throughout These Lenten Days and Nights

Author: James Gertmenian Hymnal: VU1996 #108 (1996) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Throughout these Lenten days and nights we turn to walk the inward way, where, meeting Christ, our guide and light, we live in hope till Easter Day. 2 The pilgrim Christ, the Lamb of God, who found in weakness greater power, embraces us, though lost and flawed, and leads us to his Rising Hour. 3 We bear the silence, cross and pain of human burdens, human strife, while sisters, brothers help sustain our courage till the Feast of Life. 4 And though the road is hard and steep, the Spirit ever calls us on through Calvary's dying, dark and deep, until we see the coming Dawn. 5 So let us choose the path of One who wore, for us, the crown of thorn, and slept in death that we might wake to life on Resurrection Morn! 6 Rejoice, O sons and daughters! Sing and shout hosannas! Raise the strain! For Christ, whose death Good Friday brings on Easter Day will rise again!
