Set Me as a Seal by Rene Clausen (b. 1953)
"Set me as a seal upon your heart, for love is strong as death.
Many waters cannot quench love; neither can the floods drown it." (Song of Solomon 8:6)

O quam gloriosum by Tomas Luis de Victoria (1548-1611)
O quam gloriosum est regnum, in quo cum Christo gaudent omnes Sancti,
amicti stolis albis, sequuntur Agnum quocumque ierit.
"O how glorious is the kingdom, in which all the saints rejoice with Christ,
they follow the Lamb wherever he goes."
