This is a 12th-century Gregorian chant, Christus Resurgens, that I arranged for 2 harps in the form of 4 themes with variations. Why call this "Revelation" when the original melodies were about the Resurrection? We are in times that appear to be apocalyptic, and the world could use a resurgence of Christ's teachings. The video runs just over 4 minutes.
