Transfigured Christ, None Comprehends
Author: Alan Gaunt (1935-) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: 1 Kings 19:1-18 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

Cristo Que Se Da
We sing your praise, eternal God
Author: Alan Gaunt (b. 1935) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: 1 Kings 19 Lyrics: 1 We sing your praise, eternal God,
to whom all praise belongs;
but we can never match your love,
however loud our songs:
2 Your love which comes so silently,
through all the noise we hear;
the noise of quarrelling and war,
the cries of grief and fear.
3 The winds of doubt uproot our faith,
the earthquakes of despair
destroy our hope, and fires of hate
kill love and stifle prayer.
4 And yet no sound on earth can drown
the silence we have heard;
the voice of your eternal love;
the silence of your Word.
5 It comes to guilty, broken hearts,
with challenge and release;
prepares us for self-sacrifice
and speaks eternal peace. Topics: Doubt; Fear; God Love of; Justice and Peace; Peace Used With Tune: THIS ENDRIS NYGHT
We sing your praise, eternal God
