For now is Christ risen

For now is Christ risen

From the dead

I know that my Redeemer liveth

I know that my Redeemer lives

I know that Christ is risen

Yes, I know my Redeemer lives

[petereuropa]

I Know That My Redeemer Liveth I know that my Redeemer liveth And that He shall stand At the latter day Upon the earth I know that my Redeemer liveth And He shall stand At the latter day Upon the earth Upon the earth I know that my Redeemer liveth And that He shall stand At the latter day Upon the earth And though worms destroy this body Yet in my flesh shall I see God Yet in my flesh shall I see God For now is Christ risen From the dead The first fruits of them that sleep

Lovely just so lovely Thank you Ms. Steber

[loredinusa]

This is so nice, you can understand each and every word...yes, the words are so important in this aria!

[gimmeachallenge]

@loredinusa Gracious, have you ever heard Eleanor Steber sing something where you COULDN'T understand the words? That's one of the reasons she is such a marvel to me. She could sing even a lousy English translation of an opera aria, and not only would the the listener not miss a single syllable she sang, but it would come off as authenitc and believable. She is, I believe, THE single most under-rated soprano of the 20th century.

I'm doing this for My LTCL Exam

[elkong805]

Respect! I hope everything went well (guess you finished by now?)

[petshopgirl72]

Yes, I did my Exam and passed with 90% A Distinction... When I got the news I thought it was a prank . I went on 'Trinity Collage Of London' web site click on the exam results and sure enough it is true I'm still stunned and can't beleive it's true.

[Arsamene87]

Beautiful! She was a superb singer. Where is it taken from? Is it a recital or a complete recording of the "Messiah"?

[benderpm]

Lovely voice! Listen to Eileen Farrell sing this, too.......it is magnificent.
