Valjean Arrested/valjean Forgiven Lyrics - Les Miserables (1987 Original Broadway Cast) - Alain Boublil

Constables: 

Tell his reverence your story 

Let us see if he's impressed 

You were lodging there last night 

You were the honest Bishop's guest. 

And then, out of Christian goodness 

When he learned about your plight 

You maintain he made a present of this silver... 

 

Bishop: (interrupting the Constable) 

That is right. 

But my friend you left so early 

Surely something slipped your mind 

 

(He presents two candlesticks to Valjean) 

 

You forgot I gave these also 

Would you leave the best behind? 

 

So Messieurs you may release him 

For this man has spoken true 

I commend you for your duty 

And God's blessing go with you. 

 

[The constables leave] 

 

But remember this, my brother 

See in this some higher plan 

You must use this precious silver 

To become an honest man 

 

By the witness of the martyers 

By the Passion and the Blood 

God has raised you out of darkness 

I have bought your soul for God!
