Hallelujah, from Cantata BWV 143, “Praise the Lord, My Soul”

The Tabernacle Choir & Orchestra at Temple Square perform Hallelujah, from Cantata BWV 143, “Praise the Lord, My Soul”. This Bach cantata was probably intended for a New Year’s Day service, but the soprano lyrics in this finale solicit Christ’s help as the “Prince of Peace,” connecting the cantata directly to Isaiah’s prophecies of the coming of a Messiah.
