handel's "to thee, thou glorioius son of worth" from Theodora

i heard it recently at a friend's funeral. It praises the subject, then wonderfully, expresses the wish that we may meet again in heaven. It's just glorious.
Especially the version by Sarah Connolly and Rosemary Joshua.

I am not a New Yorker but read about this survey in today's Guardian in London.
