A Face That Shone - Michael Card[00:00:00]
He ate the bread of heaven[00:00:05]
Drank water from the rock[00:00:08]
And the grumbling children followed[00:00:10]
Like a misbegotten flock[00:00:13]
He climbed up on a mountain[00:00:16]
They couldn't even touch[00:00:18]
Who'd have known that one encounter[00:00:21]
Could have ever meant so much[00:00:24]
And up upon that high place[00:00:28]
In a cleft of solid stone[00:00:30]
His face was set on fire[00:00:33]
As the God of glory shone[00:00:35]
He alone had seen it[00:00:38]
And had lived to tell the tale[00:00:41]
But because they feared the fire[00:00:43]
He had to hide behind a veil[00:00:45]
A face that shone with the radiance of the father[00:00:49]
Though it had known and endured dark desert days[00:00:55]
A face that shone with the glory of another[00:01:00]
So the prophet would discover[00:01:05]
As the glory was fading away[00:01:08]
He was the bread from heaven[00:01:16]
He would be the smitten rock[00:01:19]
He had twelve confused disciples[00:01:21]
They were his bewildered flock[00:01:24]
When he climbed upon the mountain[00:01:27]
He took Peter James and John[00:01:29]
In the face of pending glory[00:01:32]
They soon began to yawn[00:01:35]
As he prayed while they were sleeping[00:01:39]
He was transfigured into light[00:01:41]
His face a flash of lightning[00:01:44]
His clothes so burning bright[00:01:47]
So moses finally saw the face[00:01:49]
Before he'd hidden from[00:01:52]
Then came a voice from heaven[00:01:55]
This is my beloved son[00:01:57]
The face that shone is the glory of the father[00:02:01]
And he had known from the start that it was[00:02:06]
So[00:02:10]
The face that shone had let the light shine out[00:02:11]
Of darkness[00:02:14]
And we're changed into his likeness[00:02:17]
As we gaze upon the son[00:02:21]
But you and me we tend to flee from shining[00:02:23]
Faces[00:02:27]
We see the glow and then we know[00:02:29]
That we're[00:02:31]
Undone[00:02:32]
They shine his light into out emptiest of spaces[00:02:34]
With their bright and shining faces[00:02:39]
Reflect the radiance of the son[00:02:43]
The face that shone is the glory of the father[00:02:46]
And he had known from the start that it was[00:02:51]
So[00:02:54]
The face that shone had let the light shine out[00:02:56]
Of darkness[00:02:59]
And we're changed into his likeness[00:03:02]
As we gaze upon the son[00:03:06]
