Testo di Joshua, HWV 64: O Had I Jubal's Lyre

Oh, had I jubal’s lyre Or miriam’s tuneful voice Oh, had I jubal’s lyre Or miriam’s tuneful voice To sounds like his I would aspire To sounds like his I would aspire In songs like hers In songs like hers rejoice In songs like hers rejoice In songs like hers rejoice Oh, had I jubal’s lyre Or miriam’s tuneful voice Oh, had I jubal’s lyre Or miriam’s tuneful voice To sounds like his I would aspire In songs like hers In songs like hers rejoice In songs like hers rejoice In songs like hers rejoice My humble strains but faintly show How much to heav’n and thee I owe My humble strains but faintly show How much to heav’n and thee I owe How much to heav’n and thee I owe
