Lamb of GodDonna Summer

Released: October 4, 1994

Songwriter: Donna Summer Michael Omartian

Producer: Michael Omartian

Spoken:
After Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea
During the time of King Herod
Wise men from de east came to Jerusalem and asked
"where is the one who is born King of the Jews?
We saw his star in the east and we have come to worship him"

Lord we have traveled far
Torn and weary guided by your star
There before us the living King
Halleluiah his praises sing

Herod with a evil plan
Kill the babies
Came his bold command
He tried to alter God's holy plan
God has saved him
The son of man

Behold the lamb of God
The mighty King of God
The chosen one of God
Behold the lamb of God
The mighty King of love
The chosen one of God

Three Kings from a distance come
Bearing gifts for the only one
Shout to heaven sound the drum
Tell the nations
The Lord has come

Behold the lamb of God
The mighty King of God
The chosen one of God
Behold the lamb of God
The mighty King of love
The chosen one of God

He came to bring us his peace
He came to bring us his joy
To bring us love

Behold the lamb of God
The mighty King of God
The chosen one of God

Behold the lamb of God
The mighty King of God
The precious lamb of God

Behold the lamb of God
The mighty King of God
The chosen one of God

Spoken:
And so the wise men the shepherds
The ox and the lamb
The angels above
All rejoiced at God's command
As a star shine from heaven
This new King to adorn
On that very first Christmas
When Jesus Christ was born

Donna Summer

As the unquestioned queen of disco, the one and only Donna Summer lit up the late 70s and 80s with flashy, exuberant vocals and automatic earworms. Born LaDonna Adrian Gaines on Dec. 31, 1948, Summer moved to Germany after being cast in a Munich production of Hair. There, she happened to meet Giorgio Moroder and Pete Bellotte, and the trio conglomerated to form a dynamic music team. With Moroder, Summer forged together her first album, The Hostage, which reached moderate success in Northern Europe. Summer’s big break, however, would come later with the release of 1975’s sexual “Love to Love You Baby”, which became one of disco’s first mainstream hits and reached #2 on the Billboard Charts.

1977 came around with the concept album I Remember Yesterday, which featured the Top 10 single “I Feel Love”. The next year, Summer hit the silver screen with the movie Thank God It’s Friday, whose soundtrack featured one of her own the iconic “Last Dance.” This would later become one of the disco legends' signature songs. “Dance” would take home an Academy Award for Best Original Song, a Grammy, and a Golden Globe, and it jumped to a peak of #3 on the charts.

Yet Summer’s illustrious career was far from finished – Summer’s first live album Live and More featured the single “MacArthur Park”, a melting ballad that was a cover of the Jimmy Webb ballad of the same name. “Park” became Summer’s first – and perhaps most memorable – No. 1 hit, and cemented her status as a vocalist as well as a performer. With the track, she became the first female in modern rock history to hold the top spot in both the Hot 100 and the Billboard 200. 1979, though, would really be the peak of her career.
