Author: Watts Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 715 hymnals Topics: The Blessedness of Gospel Times Lyrics: 1 How beauteous are their feet, Who stand on Zion's hill, Who brings salvation on their tongues And words of peace reveal! 2 How charming 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 kings and prophets waited for, And sought, but never found. 4 How blessed are our eyes, That see this heav'nly light! Prophets and saints desir'd it 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 Thro' all the earth abroad; Let every nation now behold Their Saviour and their God.
