Epilogue

Fantine:
Monsieur, I bless your name
Valjean:
I am ready, Fantine
Fantine:
Monsieur, lay down your burden
Valjean:
At the end of my days
Fantine:
You raised my child in love
Valjean:
She's the best of my life
Fantine:
And you will be with God
Cosette:
Papa, Papa, I do not understand
Are you alright? They said you'd gone away
Valjean:
Cosette, my child, am I forgiven now?
Thank God, I've lived to see this day
Marius:
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
Valjean:
Now you are here, again beside me
Now I can die in peace
For now my life is blessed
Cosette:
You will live,
Papa you're going to live!
It's too soon, to soon say goodbye
Valjean:
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
Fantine:
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!
Valjean:
Forgive me all my trespasses
And take me to your glory
Eponine & Fantine:
Take my hand, and lead me to salvation
Take my love, for love is everlasting
Eponie, Fantine, Valjean:
And remember the truth that once was spoken
To love another person is to see the face of God!
Chrous:
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-shed
They will put away the sword.
The chain will be broken
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.

Tomorrow comes!
