Glowing Like Moses - Poem by Raymond A. Foss

Glowing like Moses
so was the Christ
standing on the mountaintop
changed forever in that moment
no longer the carpenter’s son

Claimed by God
the voice from the cloud
this is my son, the beloved,
listen to him
their lives never the same
when they went down
following his heavenly call

The fulfillment of the law,
the prophets in him
the Messiah come to life
God’s son walking with them
leading to Jerusalem, the cross

Taking on our sin
the stain of our guilt
becoming the offering
glowing like Moses
in all of his being
doing his master’s will
