1 When Jordan hushed his waters still,
And silence slept on Zion's hill;
When Salem's shepherds through the night
Watched o'er their flocks by starry light;
2 Hark! from the midnight hills around,
A voice of more than mortal sound
In distant hallelujahs stole,
Like music o'er the raptured soul.
3 On wheels of light, on wings of flame,
The glorious hosts of Zion came;
High heaven with songs of triumph rung,
While angels struck their harps and sung.
