Handel: Saul, HWV 53 / Act 2: 60. Duet: At Persecution I can laugh - Andreas Scholl/Nancy Argenta/Gabrieli/Paul McCreesh
Composed by:George Frideric Händel
At persecution I can laugh
No fear my soul can move
No fear my soul can move
In God's protection safe
And blest in Michal's love
And blest in Michal's love
Ah dearest youth for thee I fear
For thee I fear
Fly fly begone for death is near
For death is near
Fair for me
Death where thou art cannot be
Smile and danger is no more
Fly or death is at the door
Fly or death is at the door
Ah dearest youth for thee I fear for thee
Fear not lovely fair for me
Death where thou art cannot be
See the murd'rous band comes on
Stay no longer fly begone
Fly fly
Danger is no more
Ah dearest youth for thee I fear
Stay no longer fly begone
