Comfort Ye, My People...Ev'ry Valley Shall Be Exalted

And He Shall Purify The Sons Of Levi

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

Messiah Part II (Conclusion) - Part II

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...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

Thou Art Gone Up On High

The Lord Gave The Word

How Beautiful Are The Feet

Their Sound Is Gone Out

Why Do The Nations...Let Us Break Asunder

He That Dwelleth In Heaven...Thou Shalt Break Them

Hallelujah

Part III

I Know That My Redeemer Liveth

Since By Man Came Death

Behold, I Tell You...The Trumpet Shall Sound

Then Shall Be Brought To Pass...O Death...But Thanks Be To God

If God Be For Us

Worthy Is The Lamb... Amen
