Set 1
Overture - Sinfonia
Comfort ye my people
Ev'ry valley shall be exalted
And the glory of the Lord
Thus saith the Lord of Hosts
But who may abide the day of His coming
And He shall purify the sons of Levi
Behold, a virgin shall conceive
O thou that tellest good tidings to Zion
For behold, darkness shall cover the Earth
The people that walked in darkness
For unto us a Child is born
Pastoral Symphony - Pifa
There were shepherds abiding in the field
And lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them
And the angel said unto them
And suddenly there was with the angel
Glory to God in the highest
Rejoice greatly, O daughter of Zion
Then shall the eyes of the blind be opened
He shall feed His flock like a shepherd
Come unto Him, all ye that labor
His yoke is easy, his burthen is light
Comfort ye my people
Ev'ry valley shall be exalted
And the glory of the Lord
Thus saith the Lord of Hosts
But who may abide the day of His coming
And He shall purify the sons of Levi
Behold, a virgin shall conceive
O thou that tellest good tidings to Zion
For behold, darkness shall cover the Earth
The people that walked in darkness
For unto us a Child is born

Set 2
Behold the Lamb of God
He was despised
Surely, He hath borne our griefs
And with His stripes we are healed
All we like sheep have gone astray
All they that see Him laugh Him to scorn
He trusted in God
Thy rebuke hath broken His heart
Lift up your heads
The Lord gave the word
How beautiful are the feet of them
Their sound is gone out
Why do the nations so furiously rage together
Let us break their bonds asunder
He that dwelleth in heaven
Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron
Hallelujah!

Set 3
I know that my Redeemer liveth
Since by man came death
Behold, I tell you a mystery
The trumpet shall sound
Worthy is the Lamb
Amen
Since by man came death
Behold, I tell you a mystery
The trumpet shall sound
Worthy is the Lamb
Amen
