Happy Birthday, George Frideric Handel - 02/24/19 04:03 AM
Born on this day in 1685
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)
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah Hallelujah
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.
