Transfiguration: The LORD is King!

The LORD is King;
let the people tremble;
he is enthroned upon the cherubim;
let the earth shake.

The LORD is great in Zion;
he is high above all peoples.

Let them confess his Name,
which is great and awesome;
he is the Holy One.

"O mighty King, lover of justice,
you have established equity;
you have executed justice and righteousness in Jacob."

Proclaim the greatness of the LORD our God
and fall down before his footstool;
he is the Holy One.
-Psalm 99: 1-5

O God, who on the holy mount revealed to chosen witnesses your well-beloved Son, wonderfully transfigured, in raiment white and glistening: Mercifully grant that we, being delivered from the disquietude of this world, may by faith behold the King in his beauty; who with you, O Father, and you, O Holy Spirit, lives and reigns, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.  image
