1 'Tis good, Lord, to be here!
Thy glory fills the night;
Thy face and garments, like the sun,
Shine with unborrowed light.
2 'Tis good, Lord, to be here,
Thy beauty to behold,
Where Moses and Elijah stand,
Thy 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 Thy kingdom come;
We fain would hold this vision bright,
And make this hill our home.
5 'Tis good, Lord, to be here!
Yet we may not remain;
But since Thou bid'st us leave the mount,
Come with us to the plain.

Wonderful hymn. In better days we used to sing it at the FSSP parish here.
What is it about this music that just plain makes us just feel better. It is consoling music, it sounds like home, refreshing for these days. Thank you for sharing it.
