Señor de la cima

Señor de la cima, Dios de deslumbrantes vestidos,
quédate con nosotros y nosotras cuando bajemos de las alturas de nuestra adoración
Para enfrentarnos a un mundo que no ha visto lo que hemos visto en ti.
Enséñanos qué hacer.

Cuando los demonios pasen por nuestras escuelas elementales,
que no se diga que tus discípulos y discípulas no pudieron echarlos fuera.
Cuando la violencia quiera abrazar nuestras comunidades
que no se diga que tus discípulos y discípulas se acobardaron de miedo
o que caminaron por el otro lado del camino.

Cuando haya peligros o fuego o inundaciones,
que no se diga que tus discípulos y discípulas limpiaron sus garajes de toda
basura y escombros
y luego le llamaron caridad...

Señor de la cima, Dios de deslumbrantes vestidos,
Enséñanos cómo ser.
Cámbianos; transfigúranos
Para que este mundo pueda ver lo que hemos visto, y te adore.

Amén.

Lord of the Mountaintop: A Prayer for Transfiguration Sunday

Lord of the Mountaintop, God of dazzling clothes,
Be with us when we come down from the height of worship
To face a world
That didn't see what we just saw in you.
Show us what to do.

When demons rage though elementary schools
Let it not be said that your disciples could not cast the devil out.
When violence threatens to engulf our communities
Let it not be said that your disciples cowered in fear
Or walked on the other side of the road.
When there is peril or fire or flood,
Let it not be said that your disciples cleared the unwanted junk from their
garages
And called it charity….

Lord of the Mountaintop experience, God of dazzling clothes
Show us how to be.
Change us; transfigure us
So that this world might see what we have just seen, and worship you.

Amen.
