| Alone, I wait in the shadows
|
| I count the hours till I can sleep
|
| I dreamed a dream Cosette stood by
|
| It made her weep to know I die
|
| Alone at the end of the day
|
| Upon this wedding night, I pray
|
| Take these children, my Lord, to thy embrace
|
| And show them grace
|
| God on high, hear my prayer
|
| Take me now to thy care
|
| Where You are, let me be
|
| Take me now, take me there
|
| Bring me home
|
| Bring me home
|
| Monsieur, I bless your name
|
| Monsieur, lay down your burden
|
| You raised my child in love
|
| I am ready, Fantine
|
| At the end of my days
|
| She’s the best of my life
|
| And you will be with God
|
| Papa, Papa, I do not understand!
|
| Are you alright? |
| They said you’d gone away
|
| Cosette, my child, am I forgiven now?
|
| Thank God, thank God, I’ve lived to see this day
|
| It’s you who must forgive a thoughtless fool
|
| It’s you who must forgive a thankless man
|
| It’s thanks to you that I am living
|
| And again I lay down my life at your feet
|
| Cosette, your father is a saint
|
| When they wounded me
|
| He took me from the barricade
|
| Carried like a babe
|
| And brought me home to you!
|
| Now you are here
|
| Again, beside me
|
| Now, I can die in peace
|
| For now my life is blessed
|
| You will live!
|
| Papa, you’re going to live!
|
| It’s too soon
|
| Too soon to say goodbye
|
| Yes, Cosette
|
| Forbid me now to die
|
| I’ll obey… I will try…
|
| On this page
|
| I write my last confession
|
| Read it well
|
| When I, at last, am sleeping
|
| It’s the story
|
| Of those who always loved you:
|
| Your mother gave her life for you
|
| And gave you to my keeping
|
| Come with me
|
| Where chains will never bind you
|
| All your grief
|
| At last, at last, behind you
|
| Lord in Heaven
|
| Look down on him in mercy
|
| Forgive me all my trespasses
|
| And take me to Your glory
|
| Take my hand
|
| And lead me to salvation
|
| Take my love
|
| For love is everlasting
|
| And remember
|
| The truth that once was spoken:
|
| To love another person is to see the face of God!
|
| Do you hear the people sing?
|
| Lost in the valley of the night
|
| It is the music of a people
|
| Who are climbing to the light
|
| For the wretched of the Earth
|
| There is a flame that never dies
|
| Even the darkest night will end
|
| And the sun will rise
|
| They will live again in freedom
|
| In the garden of the Lord
|
| They will walk behind the ploughshare
|
| They will put away the sword
|
| The chain will be broken
|
| And all men will have their reward
|
| Who will join in our crusade?
|
| Who will be strong and stand with me?
|
| Somewhere beyond the barricade
|
| Is there a world you long to see?
|
| Do you hear the people sing?
|
| Say, do you hear the distant drums?
|
| It is the future that they bring
|
| When tomorrow comes!
