Transfigured!

Joy, joy, joy oh tripartite joy!

On winged insects bathing plumage feast,

Flown from forests, over fields of beast,

Drawn to gurgling fountains falling, toy

Landscapes of castled estates a boy

Dreams of sharing, her laughter his peace.

Requite love, pure and free, not to cease,

Not to flicker, nor to fail - enjoy!

 

One Whom time does not diminish

Unites their souls, bodies transfigured,

Weary no more, without depletion,

Life springs forward in form and finish.

Highborn, transcendent at Tabor, fed

By Christ and through Christ, take completion.
