[Narration:]
After the song was over
Nearly every person there
Went to the cathedralas 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 lordas 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 lordas son had said,
ayou will know who truly follows me
Not by what they say, but by their deedsa
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
