Let Zion's watchman all awake
Author: Doddridge Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 272 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 62:6 Lyrics: 1 Let Zion's watchmen all awake,
And take th' alarm they give;
Now let them from the mouth of God
Their awful charge receive.
2 'Tis not a cause of small import
The pastor's care demands,
But what might fill an angel's heart,
And fill'd a Saviour's hands.
3 They watch for souls, for which the Lord
Did heavenly bliss forego--
For souls which must forever live
In rapture or in woe.
4 May they that Jesus whom they preach,
Their own Redeemer see;
And watch thou daily o'er their souls,
That they may watch for thee.

Let Zion's watchman all awake
Wake, Awake, for Night is Flying
Author: Philipp Nicolai, 1556-1608; Catherine Winkworth, 1827-1878 Appears in 217 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 62:5-12 First Line: "Wake, awake, for night is flying" Lyrics: 1 "Wake, awake, for night is flying,"
The watchmen on the heights are crying;
"Awake, Jerusalem, arise!"
Midnight hears the welcome voices
And at the thrilling cry rejoices;
"Oh, where are ye, ye virgins wise?
The Bridegroom comes, awake!
Your lamps with gladness take!
Allelujah!
With bridal care
Yourselves prepare
To meet the Bridegroom, who is near."
2 Zion hears the watchmen singing,
And all her heart with joy is springing;
She wakes, she rises from her gloom.
For her Lord comes down all-glorious,
The strong in grace, in truth victorious;
Her star is ris'n, her light is come.
Now come, Thou Blessed One,
Lord Jesus, God's own Son,
Hail! Hosanna!
We enter all
The wedding hall
To eat the Supper at Thy call.
3 Now let all the heav'ns adore Thee,
Let saints and angels sing before Thee
With harp and cymbals' clearest tone.
Of one pearl each shining portal,
Where, joining with the choir immortal,
We gather round Thy radiant throne.
No eye has seen the light,
No ear has heard the might
Of Thy glory;
Therefore will we
Eternally
Sing hymns of praise and joy to Thee!

That blessed Christmas morn.

How beauteous are their feet
Author: Watts Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 712 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 62:6 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 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 heavenly light!
Prophets and kings desired 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
Through all the earth abroad;
Let every nation now behold
Their Saviour and their God. Topics: The Christian Church Ministry; The Welcome Messengers
