Act 2 - "Prais'd be the Lord" - "When the sun" - Carolyn Watkinson/English Baroque Soloists (英國巴洛克獨奏家)/John Eliot Gardiner
Lyrics by:Anonymous
Composed by:George Frideric Händel
Prais'd be the Lord from Him my wisdom springs
I bow in-raptur'd to the King of kings
He led me abject to th'imperial state
When weak and trembling for my future fate
Strengthen'd by Him each foe with horror fled
Then impious Joab at the altar bled
The death he oft deserv'd stern Schimei found
And Adonijah sunk beneath the wound
Forc'd by his crimes I spoke a brother's doom
Ah may his vices perish in his tomb
When the sun o'er yonder hills
Pours in tides the golden day
Or when quiv'ring o'er the rills
In the west he dies away
He shall ever hear me sing
Praises to th'eternal King
He shall ever hear me sing
Praises to th'eternal
Praises to th'eternal King
Praises to th'eternal King
When the sun o'er yonder hills
Pours in tides the golden day
Or when quiv'ring o'er the rills
In the west he dies away
He shall ever hear me sing
Praises to th'eternal King
When the sun o'er yonder hills
Pours in tides the golden day
He shall ever hear me sing
He shall ever hear me sing
Praises to th'eternal King
He shall ever ever hear me sing
Praises to th'eternal King
Praises
He shall ever
He shall ever hear me sing
Praises to th'eternal King
