Handel: Messiah / Part 1: Comfort ye, My People...Ev'ry Valley Shall Be Exalted - Juan Diego Florez/Orchestra del Teatro Comunale di Bologna/Michele Mariotti
Lyrics by:George Frideric Handel
Composed by:Charles Jennens
Comfort ye comfort ye my people
Comfort ye comfort ye my people saith your God
Saith your God
Speak ye comfortably to Jerusalem
Speak ye comfortably to Jerusalem
And cry unto her
That her warfare her warfare is accomplished
That her iniquity is pardoned
That her iniquity is pardoned
The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness
Prepare ye the way of the Lord
Make straight in the desert a highway for our God
Every valley
Every valley shall be exalted
Shall be exalted
Shall be exalted
Shall be exalted
And every mountain and hill made low
The crooked straight
And the rough places plain
The crooked straight
The crooked straight
The rough places plain
And the rough places plain
Every valley
Every valley shall be exalted
Every valley
Every valley shall be exalted
And every mountain and hill made low
The crooked straight
The crooked straight
The crooked straight
And the rough places plain
And the rough places plain
And the rough places plain
The crooked straight
And the rough places plain
