Poetry
Atop Mount Hermon’s lofty crest,
Peter, James and John are blessed--
Shekinah glory manifest,
Lord Jesus Christ in glory dressed.
Elijah, Moses, both appear,
Speak of His coming death, now near;
On impulse Peter speaks in fear,
“Let’s build three tabernacles here”.
O’ershadowed by the glory cloud,
Atrembling, to the ground are bowed —
Beloved Son by God avowed—
Majestic voice they hear aloud.
“Hear Him”, the Father advocates—
Thus, prominence of Scripture states;
The Word of God alone dictates,
All truth and falsehood regulates.
This Word foretells a future blessed
When we with glory will be dressed,
Forever know eternal rest,
We’ll see His glory manifest.

A beautiful piece.... of the transfiguration experience and the believer's future hope and glory.... poetically expressed. I treasure this so much because very few people still write on or preach Hope. Suffering, visions of glory, Heaven and Hell, Patience, Cross-bearing which are all expressions of Hope seem so unpopular in our days. But Hope, Faith and Love these three MUST abide together for the Gospel to be complete. You strike me as a good Bible student and a serious poet. Thanks also for your voice echoing the word of God as the true yardstick for measuring truth and falsehood.
