Here’s a prayer for
Transfiguration from Roddy Hamilton’s Listening
to the Stones website.
Prayer: Give Way to Glory
(inspired by Matthew 17:1-8, Mark 9:2-8, Luke 9:28-36)
May we give way to glory, O God
May we let the light tangle
with our lives
that we may see what you see in
us
may we see what you see
a love born in eternity
that find a home in our souls
and wants to be there
a word that lifts itself
from page into life
and tells a story
that begins with itself
may we see what you see
a vision that brings past and
future
into the one meeting place
and offers is all as present
a wisdom born of generations
where time nurtures the promise
and the longings of believers
wondering if this will the be
the generation that breaks it open
May we give way to glory
and dare its splendour
to rekindle our faith
and transfigure our lives
So be it
Amen
