handel's messiah (columbia chorale)

Comfort ye, comfort ye my people, saith your God...

Every valley shall be exalted, and every mountain and hill made low, the crooked straight, and the rough places plain...

And the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together:for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it...

Thus saith the Lord of Hosts; Yet once, a little while and I will shake the heavens, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry land...

But who may abide the Day of His Coming?

Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a Son, and shall call his name Emmanuel, God with us...

O thou that tellest good tidings to Zion...

Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee...

For, behold, darkness shall cover the earth..

The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light..

For unto us a Child is born, unto us a Son is given..

Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men...

Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion; Shout, O daughter of Jerusalem..

He shall feed his flock like a shepherd...

Come unto Him, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and He shall give you rest...

Hallelujah!
