The Epilogue
Valjean:
Now you are here
Again beside me
Now I can die in peace
For now my life is blessed
Cosette:
You will live,
Papa you're going to live!
It's too soon, to ever say goodbye
Valjean:
Yes Cosette, forbid me now to die
I'll obey, I will try
On this page, I write my last confession
Read it well, when I at last am sleeping
It's a story of those who always loved you
Your mother gave her life for you
Then gave you to my keeping
Fantine:
Come with me
Where chains will never bind you
All your grief at last at last behind you
Lord in heaven, look down on him in mercy!
Valjean:
Forgive me all my trespasses
And take me to your glory
Eponine & Fantine:
Take my hand, and lead me to salvation
Take my love, for love is everlasting
(Valjean joins)
And remember the truth that once was spoken
To love another person is to see the face of God!
Chrous:
Do you hear the people sing?
Lost in the valley of the night
It is the music of a people who are climbing to the light
For the wretched of the earth there is a flame that never dies
Even the darkest night will end and the sun will rise.
They will live again in freedom in the garden of the Lord
The chain will be broken and all men will have their reward!
Will you join in our crusade? Who will be strong and stand with me?
Somewhere beyond the barricade is there a world you long to see?
Do you hear the people sing? Say do you hear the distant drums
It is the future that they bring when tomorrow comes
Will you join in our crusade? Who will be strong and stand with me?
Somewhere beyond the baricade is there a world you long to see?
Do you hear the people sing? Say do you hear the distant drums?
It is the future that they bring when tomorrow comes!
(Singing chords)
Tomorrow comes!
