John 11:25: Jesus said to her [Martha], “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live.”
For Resurrection Sunday, enjoy the most famous chorus in Handel’s Messiah, the Hallelujah Chorus.
​
This chorus was written to celebrate God’s ultimate victory. Jesus claimed victory over death at the Resurrection!
The lyrics to Handel’s Hallelujah chorus might be difficult to understand, but are written entirely in English and are actually Scripture verses repeated throughout the entire piece.
​
George Frideric Handel (1685-1759) was a German-born composer who spent most of his life in England. He wrote many famous pieces during the late Baroque period.
