''Rejoice in the Lamb''
# '''Rejoice in God, O ye Tongues (Chorus) '''– The piece begins with a slow, mysterious setting of the title text and then launches into a fast, vigorous, dance-like section with rapidly changing meters, in which the lines follow the form, "Let Nimrod, the mighty hunter, bind a Leopard to the altar, and consecrate his spear to the Lord." The section closes with a slow, stately setting of "Hallelujah from the heart of God ... and from the echo of the heavenly harp in sweetness magnifical and mighty."
# '''For I will consider my Cat Jeoffrey ([[Voci bianche|Voce bianca]]/[[Soprano]] soloist) '''– "For I will consider my Cat Jeoffrey, ... a cat, surpassing in beauty, from whom I take occasion to bless Almighty God." Britten uses the organ part to depict the cat "wreathing his body seven times round with elegant quickness."
