My favorite Les Mis song

There, out in the darkness, a fugitive running,
Fallen from God, fallen from Grace,
God be my witness, i never shall yield
til we come face to face
til we come face to face
he knows his way in the dark
mine is the way of the lord
those who follow the path of the righteous
shall have their reward
and if they fall as lucifer fell
the flame the sword!
stars, in your multitudes
scarce to be counted
filling the darkness with order and light
you are the sentinels,
silent and sure, keeping watch in the night
keeping watch in the night
you know your place in the sky
you hold your course and your aim
and eac in your season returns and returns
and is always the same
and if you fall as lucifer fell
you fall in flame
and so it must be for so it is written
on the doorway to paradise
that those who falter and those who fall
must pay the price.
Lord, let me find him,
that i may see him
safe behind bars!
I will never rest 'til then
this i swear
this i swear by the stars!

I love Javert, hes such a conflicted character, because he really is just trying to do what he thinks is right and follow God, but in doing so he condems the person who, though he may have done wrong in the past, spends his life trying to help others. In the end, he cannot decide and throws himself off a bridge.
