Author: Brian Wren Meter: 7.8.7.8 R with alleluias Appears in 42 hymnals Scripture: Luke 9:28-36 Lyrics: 1 Christ, upon the mountain peak,
stands alone in glory blazing.
Let us, if we dare to speak,
with the saints and angels praise him.
Alleluia, alleluia!
2 Trembling at his feet we saw
Moses and Elijah speaking.
All the prophets and the law
shout through them their joyful greeting.
Alleluia, alleluia!
3 Swift the cloud of glory came,
God proclaiming in its thunder
Jesus as his Son by name!
Nations, cry aloud in wonder!
Alleluia, alleluia!
4 This is God's beloved Son!
Law and prophets fade before him;
first and last and only One,
let creation now adore him!
Alleluia, alleluia!
