A Taste of Salvation

 

Up on the mountain with Jesus to pray

Peter, James and John along the way
A glorified face; clothes dazzling white
Up on the mountain in heaven's light

Awakened from sleep struck with awe

Amazed by the vision that they saw
Moses and Elijah with Jesus in sight
Up on the mountain in heaven's light

Their witness overshadowed by a cloud

Then a voice came out speaking aloud
This is my Son, my Chosen; listen to him
Up on the mountain; the Father's might

The cloud passed and Jesus stood alone

Standing in silence the vision was gone
Speaking to no one of the transfiguration
Up on the mountain a taste of salvation
