¶Lyrics / Text

As Jesus stood on Tabor's mound, Celestial glory beamed around, And clothed the man, the God, In lucid robes of spotless white, While splendors of primeval light Loosed day's unbounded flood. More pure than Salmon's fleecy snow, His whitening garments radiant flow, How changed His mortal form! Thus breaks the sun all glorious forth, And seven-fold light revisits earth, As dies away the storm. Behold the man! What beauties shine! 'Tis there the Father beams divine With light, and life, and grace: Those glories which surround the God, His mighty arm shall pour abroad, On Adam's naked race. Lord Jesus come! From Tabor's mound, Light the whole earth with glory round: Thyself, the life, display: These bodies change to heavenly forms: O God! My soul, my spirit warms: I pant, to see the day.
