Music: Andrew Lloyd Webber.
Show: Requiem, 1985

From: Classics (2001).

This is a solo version. Originally, Sarah sings is as a duet with Paul Miles-Kingston in the Andrew Lloyd Webber show Requiem (1985). In that version it appears on several of Sarah's CDs: Surrender, The unexpected songs (1995) and The Andrew Lloyd Webber Collection (1997). and on: Sings the music of Andrew Lloyd Webber (1992).

At the concert in Edinburgh I saw, and on the video of the same concert in the Royal Albert Hall (September 1997, both), Sarah sang this song with Adam Clarke.
And at the concert as well as on the video of the La Luna tour (2000/2001), Sarah Pie Jesu this song solo.

 
Source of the lyrics: thanks to Bruno Deschênes; the lyrics are exactly the same as in the original duet, but with a slightly different distribution of the parts.

The translation of the Latin words is as follows:

Latin English
Pie Jesu
Qui tollis peccata mundi
Dona eis requiem
Agnus Dei
Dona eis requiem sempiternam
Merciful Jesus
Who takes away the sins of the world
Grant them rest
Lamb of God
Grant them everlasting rest
