HOW beauteous are their feetBy A Collection of Hymns S.M. Isaiah lii. 7 - 10. 1 HOW beauteous are their feet Who stand on Zion's hill; Who bring salvation in their tongues, And words of peace reveal!
2 How cheering is their voice, How sweet the tidings are! "Zion, behold thy Saviour King; He reigns and triumphs here." 3 How blessed are our ears That hear this joyful sound, Which kings and prophets waited for, And sought, but never found! 4 How blessed are our eyes That see this heavenly light! Prophets and kings desired long, But died without the sight. 5 The watchmen join their voice, And tuneful notes employ; Jerusalem breaks forth in songs, And deserts learn the joy. 6 The Lord makes bare his arm Through all the earth abroad: Let all the nations now behold Their Saviour and their God.
