(Michael)         We were chosen, we were chosen
                  Miles and miles apart
                  I to love your kingdom
                  You to love my heart
                  
(Angels)          We were chosen
                  We do what must
                  What must be done

(Michael)         The love is intermittent
                  The discipline continues
                  I work on your spirit
                  You work on my sinews.

(Angels)          We work on his sinews
                  And the discipline continues

                  We have fun 'cause
                  We do what must
                  What must be done

(Michael)         I watch myself from where you are
                  Please do not be mistaken
                  The spider web you see me through
                  Is the view I've always taken


                  Begin the ceremony now
                  That we have been preparing
                  I'm tired of this marble floor
                  That we have both been sharing.

(Angels)          Now we will be sharing
                  What he has been preparing!

(Girls)           He's the only one
                  He's the only one
                  He's the riddle of the music
                  He's the music of my life

(Boys)            Now it begins
                  Now it begins
                  He's the riddle of the music
                  He's the music of the sacrifice

(Valkyries)       Messenger
                  Messenger
                  Our will
                  Will be done

(Angels)          We work on his sinews
                  And the discipline continues

(Everyone)        Begin the ceremony
                  Begin the sacrifice ...
