How beauteous are their feet
who stand on Zion's hill
who bring salvation on their tongues
and words of peace instil!


How beauteous are their feet<br>
How happy are our ears
who stand on Zion's hill<br>
that hear this joyful sound
who bring salvation on their tongues<br>
which kings and prophets waited for
and words of peace instil!<br>
and sought, but never found.


How happy are our ears<br>
How blessèd are our eyes
that hear this joyful sound<br>
that see this heavenly light
which kings and prophets waited for<br>
Prophets and kings desired it long
and sought, but never found.<br>
but died without the sight.


How blessèd are our eyes<br>
The Lord makes bare his arm
that see this heavenly light<br>
through all the earth abroad
Prophets and kings desired it long<br>
let every nation now behold
but died without the sight.<br>
their Savior and their God.}}
 
The Lord makes bare his arm<br>
through all the earth abroad<br>
let every nation now behold<br>
their Savior and their God.<br>

How beauteous are their feet
who stand on Zion's hill
who bring salvation on their tongues
and words of peace instil!

How happy are our ears
that hear this joyful sound
which kings and prophets waited for
and sought, but never found.

How blessèd are our eyes
that see this heavenly light
Prophets and kings desired it long
but died without the sight.

The Lord makes bare his arm
through all the earth abroad
let every nation now behold
their Savior and their God.
