• Symphony (1. Teil)
• Cofort ye
• Ev'ry valley
• And the glory of the Lord
• Thus saith the Lord
• But who may abide
• And he shall purify
• Behold, a virgin shall conceive
• O thou that tellest good tidings
• For behold, darkness shall cover the earth
• The people that walked in darkness
• For unto us a Child is born
• Pifa
• There were shepherds
• And Io, the angel of the Lord
• And the angel said unto them
• And suddenly there was with the angel
• Glory to God
• Rejoice greatly
• Then shall the eyes of the blind
• He shall feed His flock
• His yoke is easy
• Behold the Lamb of God (2. Teil)
• He was despised

• Surely, He hath borne our griefs
• And with His stripes
• All we like sheep have gone astray
• All they that see Him
• He trusted in God
• Thy rebuke hath broken His heart
• Behold, and see
• He was cut off
• But Thou didst not leave
• Lift up your heads
• Unto which of the angels
• Let all the angels of God
• Thou art gone up on high
• The Lord gave the word
• How beautiful are the feet of them
• Their sound is gone out
• Why do the nations
• Let us break their bonds asunder
• He that dwelleth in Heaven
• Thou shalt brek them
• Hallelujah
• I know my Redeemer liveth (3. Teil)
• Since by man came death
• Behold, I tell you a mystery
• The trumpet shall sound
• Then shall be brought to pass
• O death, where is thy sting
• But thanks be to God
• If God be for us
• Worthy is the Lamb

• Along the monster atheist strode
• The youth inspir'd by the, o Lord - How excellent thy name o Lord
• He comes, he comes ! - O godlike youth!
• Behold, o King - O King, your favours with delight
• O early piety! O modest merit!
• What abject thoughts - Yet think, on whom this honour you bestow
• Birth and fortune I despise!
• Tou, Merab, first in birth - My soul rejects the thought
• See, with what a scornful air - Ah! Lovely youth!
• Symphony
• Already see the daughters of the land
• Welcome, welcome mighty king! - Saul, who hast thy thousands slain
• What do I hear? - David his ten thousands slew - To him ten thousands! - With rage I shall burst his praises to hear!
• Imprudent women! - Fell rage and black despair possess'd
• Rack'd with infernal pains, ev'n now the king comes forth
• O Lord, whose mercies numberless o'er all thy works prevail
• 'Tis all in vain
• A serpent, in my bosom warm'd - Has he escap'd my rage?
• Capricious man, in humour lost
• Oh lilial piety! Oh sacred friendship! - No cruel father, no!
• Preserve him for the glory of thy name, thy people's safety
• Envy! Eldest-born of Hell! (2. Teil)
• Ah, dearest friend - But sooner Jordan's stream - My father comes
• Hast thou boey'd my orders - Sin not, o King, against the youth

• O fairest of ten thousand fair
• Is there a man, who all his ways directs, his God alone to please?

• Symphony
• The time at length is come
• Where is the son of Jesse?
• O fatal consequence of rage, by reason uncontroll'd
• Wretch that I am! - 'Tis said, here lives a woman

• Why hast thou forc'd me from the realms of peace
• Symphony
• Whence com'st tou? - Impiour wretch, of race accurst!
• Dead March - Elegy on the Death of Saul and Jonathan

• In sweetest harmony they liv'd - Oh fataly day!
• Ye men of Judah, weep no more
• Gird on thy sword, thou man of might

• Behold Darius, great and good, by too severe a fate fall'n
• The mighty master smil'd to see that Love was in the next degree
• Softly sweet in Lydian measures soon he sooth'd the soul

• Let old Timotheus yield the prize
• Let old Timotheus yield the prize, or both divide the crown

• From Harmony, from heav'nly Harmony
• What passion cannot Music raise and quell!
• The Trumpet's oud clagor excites us to arms
• March
• The soft complaining Flue in dying notes
• Sharp Violins proclaim their jealous pang and desperation
• But oh! What art can teach - The sacred Organ's praise!

• As from the pow'r of sacred lays the spheres began to move
