O sacred oracles of truth
Mortals think that Time is sleeping
Tune your harps to cheerful strains
Mighty love now calls to arm
Overture to Jephtha
Eternal source of light divine
Welcome as the dawn of day
Your tuneful voice my tale would tell
Yet can I hear that dulcet lay
Up the dreadful steep ascending
Overture to Samson
Thou shalt bring them in
Who calls my parting soul from death
On the valleys, dark and cheerless
How can I stay when love invites
