Anno Domine

(NARRATION)
 Christmas is how In every nation That hope is passed Through generations From old to young And sometimes I'm told It's actually passed From young to old Yes, our angel had been quite impressed With this youth that he had found But then across the street he heard An old familiar sound It was a multitude of voices From the old cathedral's choir Singing out about this night And the hopes that it inspires (ANNO DOMINE) On this night of hope and salvation One child lies embraced in a dream Where each man regardless of station On this night can now be redeemed Where every man regardless of his nation Ancestral relations On this night the past can fly away And that dream we've dreamed most That every child is held close On this night that dream won't be betrayed All as one Raise your voices! Raise your voices! All as one On this christmas day! All rejoice Raise your voices! Raise your voices! All rejoice Anno domine! On this night when no child's forgotten No dream sleeps where he cannot see No man here is misbegotten And this night's dreams are still yet to be Where every man regardless of his nation Ancestral relations On this night the past can fly away And that dream we've dreamed most That every child is held close On this night that dream won't be betrayed All as one Raise your voices! Raise your voices! All as one On this christmas day! All rejoice Raise your voices! Raise your voices! All rejoice Anno domine!
 After the song was over
 Nearly every person there
 Went to the cathedral's basement
 And started setting up tables and chairs
 For that night this church would feed
 Any person in life who had less
 And both those that gave and those that received
 Left that night feeling blessed
 Then the angel remembered something
 That his lord's son had once said
 On how one truly followed him
 When words and acts were wed
 Some people claim to follow him
 But themselves they just deceive
 For his lord's son had said,
 "you will know who truly follows me
 Not by what they say, but by their deeds"
 And this church was clearly filled
 With kind people of goodwill
 But the angel had more time left on this night
 And continued to search on still
 So the angel left the parishioners
 With their christmas meal in happy bliss
 And returned once more to the hotel
 To make sure that there was no one there he had missed
 And passing by a village square
 He heard a brass quartet
 Whose christmas concerto in the key of g
 He felt lighten his every step
