Sinfonia - Comfort ye - Every valley shall be exalted - And the glory of the Lord
But who may abide the day of His coming
And He shall purify the sons of Levi
Behold, a virgin shall conceive - O thou that tellest good tidings to Zion - O thou that tellest
For behold, darkness shall cover the earth - The people that walked in darkness
For unto us a child is born - Pifa (Pastoral Symphony) - There were shepherds abiding in the field

XX. Behold the Lamb of God
He was despised and rejected of men
Surely He hath borne our griefs - And with His stripes - All we like sheep - All they that see Him - He trusted in God - Thy rebuke hath broken His heart - Behold and see - He was cut off - But Thou didst not leave
Lift up your heads - Unto which of the angels said He at any time - Let all the angels of God worship Him
The Lord gave the word
How beautiful are the feet
Their sound is gone out into all lands
XXXI. Why do the nations so furiously rage together
XXXII. Let us break their bonds asunder
He that dwelleth in heaven - Thou shalt break them with a rod of iron

O Death, where is thy sting? [recitative] (alternate version)
He was despised… (alternate version)
