"Bring Him
Home" |
||
|
From the musical 'Les Miserables', this solo by the lead character, Jean Valjean is a prayer to God, asking for Him to protect the man whom his daughter has fallen in love with. The revolution in Paris is about to start, and many are going to die that day. In the front line, alongside Jean Valjean, Marius Pontmercy will fight for the people. Back at her home, Cosette will be praying that her father, and her love, will return safely from the battle. This recording, sung superbly by perhaps the finest ever actor to play Jean Valjean - Gary Morris, features the London Philharmonic Orchestra. I have forsaken some of the breathtaking quality of the original recording, to make the download a practical size. I hope you enjoy this wonderful solo as much as I do.
"Bring Him Home" God on high Hear my prayer In my need You have always been there. He is young, He’s afraid Let him rest Heaven blessed. Bring him home Bring him home Bring him home. He’s like the son I might have known If God had granted me a son. The summers die One by one How soon they fly On and on And I am old And will be gone. Bring him peace Bring him joy He is young He is only a boy. You can take You can give Let him be Let him live If I die Let me die Let him live, bring him home Bring him home Bring him home. -oOo- |
