How Beauteous Are Their Feet
Author: Isaac Watts (1674-1748) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 712 hymnals Scripture: Mark 1:1-8 Lyrics: 1 How beauteous are their feet
who stand on Zion's hill,
who bring salvation on their tongues
and words of peace reveal!
2 How welcome is their voice,
how sweet the tidings are!
Zion, behold thy Saviour King;
he reigns and triumphs here.
3 How happy are our ears
that hear this joyful sound,
which seers and rulers waited for
and sought, but never found.
4 How blessed are our eyes
that see this heavenly light!
Prophets and saints desired it long,
but died without the sight.
5 The sentinels in song
their tuneful notes employ;
Jerusalem breaks forth in hymns
and deserts sing for joy.
6 The glory of the Lord
shines through the earth abroad:
let every nation now behold
their Saviour and their God. Topics: Call and Vocation; Advent; Salvation/Redemption Used With Tune: VENICE

grant we may not faint or fail.

ever constant by your side,
that with you we may appear
