The Transfiguration
Marcus Aurelius Clemens Prudentius (348-413) Orlando Gibbons (1583 – 1625)
Song 34 (1623)
1. All ye who seek in hope and love,
For your dear Lord, look up above;
Where traced upon the azure sky,
Faith may a glorious form descry.
4. To Thee the prophets witness bear,
Of Thee the Father doth declare;
That all who would His glory see,
Must hear and must believe in Thee.
2. Hail, Thou, the gentiles’ mighty Lord!
All Hail, O Israel’s King Adored!
T’Abraham sworn in ages past,
And to his seed while earth shall last.
5. To Jesus from the proud conceal’d,
But evermore to babes reveal’d;
All glory with the Father be,
And Holy Ghost eternally.
3. Lo! on the trembling verge of light,
A something all divinely bright;
Immortal, infinite, sublime!
Older than chaos, space or time!
Amen.
