[Instrumental] [Verse] As soon as I, your servant, learned all this, I fled from them. God has sent me to perform with you such deeds as will astonish people throughout the whole earth who hear of them. Your servant is, indeed, a God-fearing woman, serving the God of heaven night and day. [Verse] Now I will remain with you, my lord; but each night your servant will go out into the valley and pray to God. He will tell me when they have committed their offenses. Then I will come and let you know, so that you may march out with all your forces, [Verse] and not one of them will be able to withstand you. I will lead you through the heart of Judea until you come to Jerusalem, and there in its center I will set up your throne. You will drive them like sheep that have no shepherd, and not even a dog will growl at you. [Verse] This was told to me in advance and announced to me, and I have been sent to tell you. Her words pleased Holofernes and all his attendants. [Chorus] They marveled at her wisdom and exclaimed, No other woman from one end of the earth to the other looks so beautiful and speaks so wisely! [Instrumental] [Verse] Then Holofernes said to her: God has done well in sending you ahead of your people, to bring victory to our hands, and destruction to those who have despised my lord. [Chorus] They marveled at her wisdom and exclaimed, No other woman from one end of the earth to the other looks so beautiful and speaks so wisely! [Instrumental] [Verse] You are not only beautiful in appearance, but you are also eloquent. If you do as you have said, [Pre-Chorus] your God will be my God; you will live in the palace of King Nebuchadnezzar and be renowned throughout the whole earth. [Chorus] They marveled at her wisdom and exclaimed, No other woman from one end of the earth to the other looks so beautiful and speaks so wisely! [Instrumental] [End]
