1
'Tis good, Lord, to be here!
Your glory fills the night;
Your face and garments, like the sun,
Shine with unborrowed light.

2
'Tis good, Lord, to be here,
Your beauty to behold,
Where Moses and Elijah stand,
Your messengers of old.

3
Fulfiller of the past!
Promise of things to be!
We hail your body glorified,
And our redemption see.

4
Before we taste of death,
We see your kingdom come;
We long to hold the vision bright,
And make this place our home.

5
'Tis good, Lord, to be here!
Yet we may not remain;
But since you bid us leave this mount,
Come with us to the plain.

6
'Tis good, Lord, to be here!
Your glory fills the night;
Your face and garments, like the sun,
Shine with unborrowed light.
