O
praise the Lord for His salvation!
His
mercy and His truth abound!O shout for gladness, every nation!
How wondrous is the joyful sound!
How
great His mercy is to us!
His
truth endures forevermore! The work of God is glorious
Which prophets have declared before!
The
Law and prophets had foretold
Our
Savior would be sacrificed. Both Moses and Elijah hold
A conversation thus with Christ.
Behold
our Lord transfigured then,
As
His disciples are asleep, Conversing with those ancient men
Of His commitment to His sheep.
The
sleeping audience awakes;
Not
one of them knows what to say, So Peter (known for his mistakes),
Now bids the patriarchs to stay.
We
see a cloud now overspread
The
three disciples filled with fear. They’ve heard what God the Father said;
It wasn’t time to speak, but hear!
There
surely is a time to speak,
But
not before we listen well.We need to listen to and seek
His Son who saves our soul from hell.
Then
let the joy of Christ amaze
Your
heart with truth you can’t keep in, And let the prelude of our praise
To Jesus Christ our Lord begin!
O
Lord, we see Your face alone,
As
we’re astonished at Your love. You set aside Your splendid throne
To bring redemption from above!
Be
glorified with gratitude,
O
Lord, for Your redeeming grace!This life is just a short prelude
Of praise before we see Your face!
