Yet another that probably should be read while listening to the recording. It would make things simpler to comprehend--a lot goes on at the same time in this song. I think it's understood easily enough, though, with the music. Certainly hope so.
Lucy
I was a child waiting for my life to unfold . . .
Always whispering my prayers, longing for a man whose heart I could
hold . . .
Chauvelin
Now you're here with me, every moment full of promise at last!
Both
All the love that we've found,
There's no need for looking back into the past . . .
Lucy
My life was changed from our first kiss . . .
They can't touch love as pure as this.
Andrew (outside)
The day has come, like the moment in the dark when you begin to see
. . .
Percy (nearby)
The day you know, that there's somewhere you'll find shelter from the
storm . . .
Lucy and Chauvelin
Each day that comes is as precious as the love we thought we'd never
find
Each day we live is as fearless as the fire that keeps us warm
All Four
The day has come: In our heart of hearts, we know the day has come!
Hebert (inside prison)
Are you sure that nothing can go wrong?
How can you be certain of your plan?
De Guinterre (to Hebert)
Hebert, my friend, you don’t know what I do;
This cannot fail . . .
Lucy and Chauvelin
The love we make is a love we'll make together all our lives
All
The day has come . . .
De Guinterre
There is no escape, nothing left up to chance . . .
Lucy and Chauvelin
There's nothing in the world to change the love we've known
Percy
Fortune, my dear, come stand by my side . . .
All
The day has come . . .
Andrew
Lord, I ask that you show all the things we must know . . .
Chauvelin
And I'll trust each word you say until we die . . .
De Guinterre
Now the triumph is mine!
All
The day has come,
In our heart of hearts, we know the day has come . . .
The day has come!
Percy (whispered)
It is Judgment Day
Dear God, the day has come . . .
