I Know That My Redeemer Liveth

My favorite song to listen to on Easter Morning is this piece from the Easter section of Handel's Messiah.  It is peaceful, calm, and yet resolute in its confidence.  (The references are Job 19:25-26, oddly enough, and 1 Corinthians 15:20).  It is a sublime meditation on the resurrection of Jesus, and our own.  You can find it in my new playlist here.  ( I also use this piece as a benchmark for a really great soprano. Emma Kirkby is a really great soprano, and is perfect for this selection, not overly operatic, if you get my drift.)

While you are there, listen to the glorious "Worthy if the Lamb" and the majestic Great Amen.  If this doesn't stir you, check for a pulse!
