Hymn 10
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 711 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 52:2 First Line: How beauteous are their feet Lyrics:
How beauteous are their feet
Who stand on Zion's hill!
Who bring salvation on their tongues,
And words of peace reveal!
How charming is their voice!
How sweet the tidings are!
"Zion, behold thy Savior King;
He reigns and triumphs here."
How happy are our ears
That hear this joyful sound,
Which kings and prophets waited for,
And sought, but never found!
How blessed are our eyes
That see this heav'nly light
Prophets and kings desired it long,
But died without the sight.
The watchmen join their voice,
And tuneful notes employ;
Jerusalem breaks forth in songs,
And deserts learn the joy.
The Lord makes bare his arm
Through all the earth abroad;
Let every nation now behold
Their Savior and their God!
Hymn 10
On the Mountain's Top Appearing
Author: Thomas Kelly Meter: 8.7.8.7.11.11 Appears in 595 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 52:7 Lyrics: 1 On the mountain’s top appearing,
Lo! the sacred herald stands,
Welcome news to Zion bearing,
Zion, long in hostile lands:
Mourning captive, God Himself shall loose thy bands;
Mourning captive, God Himself shall loose thy bands.
2 Has thy night been long and mournful?
Have thy friends unfaithful proved?
Have thy foes been proud and scornful,
By thy sighs and tears unmoved?
Cease thy mourning, Zion still is well beloved;
Cease thy mourning, Zion still is well beloved.
3 God, thy God, will now restore thee;
He Himself appears thy Friend;
All thy foes shall flee before thee;
Here their boasts and triumphs end:
Great deliv’rance Zion’s King will surely send;
Great deliv’rance Zion’s King will surely send.
4 Peace and joy shall now attend thee;
All thy warfare now is past;
God thy Savior will defend thee;
Victory is thine at last:
All thy conflicts end in everlasting rest;
All thy conflicts end in everlasting rest. Used With Tune: ZION Text Sources: Timeless Truths (http://library.timelesstruths.org/music/On_the_Mountains_Top_Appearing); The Gospel Trumpet Company, Truth in Song, 1907 (13); The Cyber Hymnal (http://www.hymntime.com/tch/htm/o/n/onmountt.htm)

And let thy various charms be known:
The world thy glories shall confess,
Decked in the robes of righteousness.

And fill thy hallowed halls with dread;
No more shall hell's insulting host
Their victory and thy sorrows boast.

His hand thy ruins shall repair;
Nor will thy watchful Monarch cease
To guard thee in eternal peace. Topics: The Christian Church Missionary; Triumphant Zion

Daughter of Zion, awake from thy sadness
Author: Anon. Appears in 254 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 52:1 Lyrics: 1 Daughter of Zion, awake from thy sadness;
Awake, for thy foes shall oppress thee no more;
Bright o'er thy hills dawns the day-star of gladness;
Arise, for the night of thy sorrow is o'er.
2 Strong were thy foes; but the arm that subdued them,
And scattered their legions, was mightier far;
They fled like the chaff from the scourge that pursued them;
Vain were their steeds and their chariots of war.
3 Daughter of Zion, the power that hath saved thee
Extolled with the harp and the timbrel should be;
Shout, for the foe is destroyed that enslaved thee;
The oppressor is vanquished, and Zion is free. Topics: The Christian Church Missionary; Daughter of Zion
