147. Christ Upon the Mountain Peak

Verse 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:

Chorus 1

Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia.

Verse 2

Trembling at His feet we saw

Moses and Elijah speaking;

All the prophets and the law

Shout thro’ them their joyful greeting:

Chorus 3

Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia.

Verse 4

Swift the cloud of glory came,

God proclaiming in the thunder

Jesus as His Son by name;

Nations cry aloud in wonder!

Chorus 5

Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia.

Verse 6

This is God’s beloved Son:

Law and prophets fade before Him;

First and last, the only One,

Let creation now adore Him.

Chorus 7

Alleluia, Alleluia, Alleluia.
