How Did My Heart Rejoice to Hear

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #2221 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. How did my heart rejoice to hear My friends devoutly say, In Zion let us all appear, And keep the solemn day! 2. I love her gates, I love the road; The church, adorned with grace, Stands like a palace built for God, To show His milder face. 3. Up to her courts with joys unknown The holy tribes repair; The Son of David holds His throne, And sits in judgment there. 4. He hears our praises and complaints; And while His awful voice Divides the sinners from the saints, We tremble and rejoice. 5. Peace be within this sacred place, And joy a constant guest! With holy gifts and heav’nly grace Be her attendants blest! 6. My soul shall pray for Zion still, While life or breath remains; There my best friends, my kindred dwell, There God my Savior reigns.
