Mendelssohn, There shall a star come out of Jacob

Felix Mendelssohn (1808-47) Oriel College Chapel Choir, 16 January 2022 There shall a star from Jacob come forth, and a sceptre from Israel rise up. And dash in pieces princes and nations. How bright appears the Morning Star With mercy beaming from afar, The host of heaven rejoices: Jesus, Jesus! Holy, holy, yet most lowly, Draw thou near us; Great Immanuel, Come and hear us.
