• • (Moderato e nobilmente)
  • We are the music makers
  • With wonderful deathless ditties
  • We, in the ages lying
  • A breath of our inspiration
  • They had no vision amazing*
  • And therefore to-day is thrilling*
  • But we, with our dreaming and singing
  • For we are afar with the dawning
  • Great hail! we cry to the comers*
  • Prelude
  • Jesu Maria, I am near to death (Gerontius)
  • Kyrie eleison (Chorus)
  • Rouse thee, my fainting soul (Gerontius)
  • Be merciful, be gracious (Chorus)
  • Sanctus fortis, Santus Deus (Gerontius)
  • I can no more; for now it comes again (Gerontius)
  • Rescue him, O Lord (Chorus)
  • Novissima hora est (Gerontius)
  • Proficiscere, anima Christiana (Priest)
  • Go in the name of Angels (Chorus)
  • I went to sleep (soul of Gerontius)
  • My work is done (Angel)
  • All hail! My child(Soul, Angel)
  • Low-born clods of brute earth (Chorus)
  • It is the restless panting of their being (Angel)
  • The mind bold and independent (Chorus)
  • I see not those false spirits (Soul, Angel)
  • Praise to the Holiest (Chorus)
  • The sound is like the rushing of the wind (Soul)
  • Glory to Him (Chorus)
  • They sing of thy approaching agony (Angel, Soul)
  • But hark! a grand mysterious harmony (Soul)
  • And now the threshold (Angel)
  • Praise to the Holiest (Chorus)
  • Thy judgement now is near (Angel, Soul)
  • Jesu! by that shuddering dread (Angel)
  • Be merciful, be gracious (Chorus)
