Hallelujah from Handel's Messiah (every year I always get excited when Christmas rolls around knowing that I will be attending at least one live performance of Messiah)
For the Lord God omnipotent reigneth Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
For the Lord God omnipotent reigneth Hallelujah The kingdom of this world Is become The kingdom of our God And of His Christ And He shall reign forever King of Kings For ever and ever And Lord of Lords
George Frideric Handel - Music for the Royal Fireworks
See, the conqu'ring hero comes and Sing Unto God from Handel's Judas Maccabaeus
See, the conqu'ring hero comes! Sound the trumpets! Beat the drums! Sports prepare! The laurel bring! Songs of triumph to him sing!
See the godlike youth advance! Breathe the flutes and lead the dance! Myrtle wreaths and roses twine to deck the hero's brow divine!
See, the conqu'ring hero comes! Sound the trumpets! Beat the drums! Sports prepare! The laurel bring! Songs of triumph to him sing! See, the conqu'ring hero comes! Sound the trumpets! Beat the drums!
Sing unto God, and high affections raise, To crown this conquest with unmeasur'd praise.
