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. Scripture: Luke 9:28-36 Used With Tune: HYFRYDOL
