Behold our Lord transfigured,
In Sacrament Divine;
His glory deeply hidden,
'Neath forms of Bread and Wine.
+++
Our eyes of faith behold Him,
Salvation is outpoured;
The Saviour dwells among us,
by ev'ry heart adored.
+++
No longer on the mountain
With Peter, James and John,
Our precious Saviour bids us
To walk where saints have gone.
+++
He has no lasting dwelling,
Save in the hearts of men;
He feeds us with His Body,
To make us whole again.
+++
With Moses and Elijah,
We worship Christ our King;
Lord, make our souls transfigured,
Let us with angels sing.
+++
Lead us in paths of glory,
Give tongues to sing thy praise;
Lord Jesus, keep us faithful,
Now and for all our days.
