How bright these glorious spirits shine!

Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 156 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 25:8 Lyrics: 1 How bright these glorious spirits shine! Whence all their white array? How came they to the blissful seats of everlasting day? 2 Lo! these are they from sufferings great who came to realms of light, and in the blood of Christ have washed those robes that shine so bright. 3 Now with triumphal palms they stand before the throne on high, and serve the God they love amidst the glories of the sky. 4 Hunger and thirst are felt no more, nor sun with scorching ray: God is their sun, whose cheering beams diffuse eternal day. 5 The Lamb, who dwells amid the throne, shall o'er them still preside, feed them with nourishment divine, and all their footsteps guide. 6 In pastures green he'll lead his flock where living streams appear; and God the Lord from every eye shall wipe off every tear.
