CHORAL PRELUDE

1

Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring J.S. Bach

Jesu, joy of man’s desiring, Holy wisdom, love most bright; Drawn by Thee, our souls aspiring, Soar to uncreated light.Word of God our flesh that fashioned with the fire of life impassioned.Striving still to Truth unknown, soaring, dying, round Thy throne.

Through the way where Hope is guiding, Hark, what peaceful music rings!Where the flock in Thee confiding, Drink of joy from deathless sprints.Theirs is beauty’s fairest pleasure; Theirs is wisdom’s holiest treasure.Thou dost ever lead Thine own, In the love of joys unknown.

O Praise the Lord A. Gumpelzhaimer

O praise the Lord, all ye people praise him, for he is good, Alleluia.With all the saints and angels join now and sing a joyful song.

Cantate Domino G.O. Pittoni

Cantate Domino canticum novum; Sing to the Lord a new canticle:Laus ejus in ecclesia sanctorum. Let his praise be in the church of the saints.Laetetur Israel in eo qui fecit eum, Let Israel rejoice in him that made him;et filii Sion exsultent in rege suo. and let the children of Sion be joyful in their king.

Jubliate Deo W.A. Mozart

Jubilate Deo omnis terra: Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all you lands:servite Domino in laetitia. Serve the Lord with gladness.Laudate nomen ejus, Bless the name of the Lord,Quoniam suavis est Dominus. for the Lord is good (gracious).Alleluia. Alleluia.
