Prelude- The Old Boy

Hark! For We sing His story.
Behold! For We reveal to you a scared place.
Come! For We shall lead you to Him.
Remember! For We are your memory.

Wake from your slumber Old Boy!
We celebrate you today!
So show this Acolyte of Memory your light.
And she shall have eternal life!

Old Boy woke, and spaketh He:
I transcend you and me.
I hear, and I live a new life.
I speak, and you gain life.

Wake from your slumber Old Boy!
We celebrate you today!
So show the lowly of the Earth your light.
And they shall have eternal life!

Old Boy woke, and spaketh He:
I transcend hate and fear.
I carry the people's burden.
Through them you find me.

Wake from your slumber Old Boy!
We celebrate you today!
So show the evil of the Earth your light.
And they shall have eternal life!

Old Boy woke, and spaketh He:
I transcend the cave of the good.
I embrace the human enemy of humans.
Because I am only just as human.

Wake from your slumber Old Boy!
We celebrate you today!
So show the people the way of eternal life.
For that is the light they seek.

Old Boy woke, and spaketh He:
I transcend eternal life.
I have already died, and I shall die again
For every death I share in is also another life.

Have multiplicity of being, share in what others give you.
Dedicate yourself, make your own story.
This is the way of eternal life for the We that is Memory.
Now let this phantom rest.

Slumber Old Boy, We shall put you back in bed in the back of their minds.
Go to sleep, we shall tuck you in the covers of time.
