Here’s an opening prayer of
longing and worship from Janet Morley and the Weekly Worship page of the Christian Aid website.
Prayer for Transfiguration
Sunday
(inspired by Matthew 17:1-8, Mark 9:2-9, Luke 9:28-36)
‘they saw his glory…’
Luke 9:32
O God,
whose beauty is beyond our imagining,
and whose power we cannot comprehend:
show us your glory
as far as we can grasp it,
and shield us
from knowing more than we can bear
until we may look upon you without fear,
through Jesus Christ, Amen.
