Overture

Comfort ye, my people

Every valley shall be exalted

And the glory of the Lord

And He shall purify

Behold, a virgin shall conceive

O Thou that tellest good tidings to Zion

For unto us a Child is born

Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion

The Lord gave the word

Their sound is gone out

Why do the nations?

Let us break their bonds asunder

He that dwelleth in heaven

Thou shalt break them

Hallelujah

I know that my redeemer liveth

Since by man came death

Then shall be brought to pass

O death, where is they sting?

But thanks be to God

Worthy is the Lamb ... Amen.
