Oratorio

"Comfort ye," an accompanied recitative from Messiah George Frideric Handel 

Comfort ye, comfort ye my people,
saith your God God.
Speak ye comfortably to Jerusalem,
And cry unto her, that her warfare,
her warfare is accomplish'd,
That her iniquity is pardon'd.
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.
