The Notre Dame Magnificat Choir, Liturgical Choir, Folk Choir and Basilica Schola sing the hymn "Lo, He Comes with Clouds Descending" (HELMSLEY) along with the congregation at the Basilica of the Sacred Heart. This was recorded live at Advent Lessons and Carols on December 4, 2020. The Singing was led by organist Michelle Sacco.
Lo! He comes with clouds descending,
once for our salvation slain;
thousand, thousand saints attending
swell the triumph of his train:
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!
Christ reveals his endless reign.
Ev'ry eye shall now behold him
robed in glorious majesty;
those who set at naught and sold him,
pierced and nailed him to the tree,
deeply wailing, deeply wailing, deeply wailing,
shall their true Messiah see.
Those dear tokens of his passion
still his dazzling body bears,
cause of endless exultation
to his ransomed worshipers.
With what rapture, with what rapture, with what rapture,
gaze we on those glorious scars!
Yea, amen, let all adore thee
high on thine eternal throne;
Savior, take the pow'r and glory,
claim the kingdom as thine own.
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia!
Thou shalt reign, and thou alone!
