Plain collect for Transfiguration

 "Come with us to the plain" is the last line of the hymn for Transfiguration "'Tis Good, Lord, to Be Here."


In collect form:

Transfigured Jesus of the mountaintop

Who speaks with Moses and Elijah as we watch, squinting, mouths agape.

You are too bright for us. 

Walk down the mountain path again, trip over tangled roots, skin your knees. 

Speak with us. Know us. Shine the brightness of your mercy upon us. 

So that when we reach the long stretches of plain, we can keep going. 

Amen
