Epilogue (Finale) [Live]

Alone, I wait in the shadows

I count the hours till I can sleep

I dreamed a dream Cosette stood by

It made her weep to know I died

Alone at the end of the day

Upon this wedding night, I pray

Take these children, my Lord, to Thy embrace

And show them grace

God on high

Hear my prayer

Take me now

To Thy care

Where You are

Let me be

Take me now

Take me there

Bring me home

Bring me home

Monsieur, I bless your name

I am ready, Fantine

Monsieur, lay down your burden

At the end of my days

You raised my child with love

She's the best of my life

And you will be with God

Papa, Papa, I do not understand

Are you alright? They said you'd gone away

Cosette, my child, am I forgiven now?

Thank God, thank God, I've lived to see this day

It's you who must forgive a thoughtless fool

It's you who must forgive a thankless man

It's thanks to you that I am living

And again, I lay down my life at your feet

Cosette, your father is a saint

When they wounded me

He took me from the barricade

Carried like a babe

And brought me home to you

Now you are here

Again beside me

Now I can die in peace

For now, my life is blessed

You will live, Papa, you're going to live

It's too soon, too soon to say goodbye

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

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

Forgive me all my trespasses

And take me to Your glory

Take my hand

And lead me to salvation

Take my love

For love is everlasting

And remember

The truth that once was spoken

To love another person

Is to see the face of God

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

They will walk behind the plough share

They will put away the sword

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 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

Oh

Tomorrow comes
