Lyics

HOW beauteous are their feet,

Who stand on Zion's hill!

Who bring salvation on their tongues,

And words of grace reveal.



How charming is their voice!

How sweet their tidings are!

"Zion, behold thy Saviour King,

He reigns and triumphs here."



How happy are our ears

That hear the joyful sound,

Which kings and prophets waited for,

And sought, but never found!



How blessed are our eyes,

That see the heavenly light!

Prophets and kings desired it long,

But died without the sight.



You watchmen join your voice,

And tuneful notes employ;

Jerusalem break forth in songs,

Ye deserts learn the joy.



O Lord make bare thy arm,

Through all the earth abroad!

Let every nation now behold

Their Saviour and their God.



Glory to God on high!

And peace o'er all the earth;

Good will to men-to angels joy

At our Redeemer's birth!
