Adi Da Beloved (audio)

----------------------------------------------------
Chris Tong sings "Adi Da Beloved" — a devotional version of the traditional Christmas carol, "Angels We Have Heard On High".
Words, musical arrangement, and performance by Chris Tong, in the manner of other ecstatic, dramatic, immersive musical pieces like the “Hallelujah Chorus” (the finale of Handel's Messiah) and “Ode To Joy” (the finale of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony).
instruments: synthesizers, horns, flute, piano, violin, bass, drums, bells.
Thanks to my dear friend, Crane Kirkbride, whose own beautiful singing of music like this inspired me to create Adi Da Beloved. Crane also gave me some very helpful singing tips after listening to an earlier version.
This audio is also part of an article, Adi Da and Holiday Music.

ADI DA BELOVED
All the world awaited Him,
Praying for the Promised Lord.
Then He found a Way to here. . .
Now He's here forever more.
Da, Adi Da, Adi Da Beloved.
Da, Adi Da, Adi Da Beloved.
He is Consciousness Itself,
All-Pervading,
not apart,
freeing us from separate self,
Shining "Bright" in every heart.
Da, Adi Da, Adi Da Beloved.
Da, Adi Da, Adi Da Beloved.
All will feel His Presence here
make this world a Sacred Place.
Praise Him for His Sacrifice!
Praise Him for His Blessing Grace!
Da, Adi Da, Adi Da Beloved.
Da, Adi Da, Adi Da Beloved.
