Guitar chords with lyrics

Verse 1:
F#m      E               Em6              D              F#m
When He took the three disciples to the mountainside to pray
       E              Em6            D            F#m
His countenance was modified, his clothing was aflame
      E           Em6          D
Two men appeared; Moses and Elijah came
                 F#m
They were at his side
      E             Em6         D                        F#m
The prophecy, the legislation spoke of whenever he would die
 (Continue through progresion instrumentally 2-4x)

Verse 2:
F#m         E
Then there came a word
     Em6              D              F#m
Of what he should accomplish on the day
       E              Em6             D          F#m
Then Peter spoke, to make of them a tabernacle place
    E                Em6            D
A cloud appeared in glory as an accolade
                 F#m
They fell on the ground
   E                  Em6
A voice arrived, the voice of God
     D                        F#m
The face of God, covered in a cloud
  (progression 2-4x at forte then quiet down right at the strike of the F#m on "what")

Verse 3:
F#m      E
What he said to them
      Em6               D           F#m
The voice of God: the most beloved son
    E             Em6              D              F#m
Consider what he says to you, consider what's to come
      E           Em6
The prophecy was put to death
     D                            F#m
Was put to death, and so will the Son
      E                 Em6              D                  A
And keep your word, disguise the vision till the time has come
     (play through progression replacing the F#m with an A)

Refrain:
A             E       Em6            D             A
Lost in the cloud, a voice: Have no fear! We draw near!
              E       Em6          D              A
Lost in the cloud, a sign: Son of man! Turn your ear!
              E       Em6            D            A
Lost in the cloud, a voice: Lamb of God! We draw near!
              E       Em6          D           A
