C is correct.
B should have a comma in place of the semi-colon.
D should have the ; removed
A should have the “and;” removed.

This is a subjective matter. If punctuation renders the same experience to the eye as it does the inner ear, it is fine. In my opinion:
A is the best of the four.
B should be a comma.
C could be a colon.
D is the worst. I see no need for any punctuation at all.
