Isaiah 52:7-10

How beautiful upon the mountains
   are the feet of him who brings glad tidings,
Announcing peace, bearing good news,
   announcing salvation, and saying to Zion,
   “Your God is King!”
Hark! Your watchmen raise a cry,
   together they shout for joy,
For they see directly, before their eyes,
   the Lord restoring Zion.
Break out together in song,
   O ruins of Jerusalem!
For the Lord comforts his people,
   he redeems Jerusalem.
The Lord has bared his holy arm
   in the sight of all the nations;
All the ends of the earth will behold
   the salvation of our God.
~Isaiah 52:7-10


Glorious now behold Him arise;
King and God and sacrifice;
Alleluia, Alleluia,
Sounds through the earth and skies.

O star of wonder, star of light,
Star with royal beauty bright,
Westward leading, still proceeding,
Guide us to thy perfect light.

~Excerpt from We Three Kings - Words & Music: John Hopkins, Jr.
