@craigwiggins1: I believe this video was done in '06, when they were at Goshen College, a Mennonite school. Pretty sure all have graduated by now, but Brooks Gingrich (kid in the red t-shirt) has gone on to other musical endeavors (singing and teaching)

Adoramus te, Christe, et benedicimus tibi, quia per sanctam crucem tuam redemisti mundum. Qui passus es pro nobis, Domine, miserere nobis. We adore thee, O Christ, and we bless thee, because by thy holy cross thou hast redeemed the world. O Lord, who suffered for us, have mercy on us.

@periphery09: Just as faith does for others......YOU have a good heart!

@msnrc

Beautiful music like this was actually the first the first thing to bring me to faith. The second thing was a very long argument about the topic.

But since I was an atheist once too I realize how annoying converters can be. So I'll leave you alone. >_>
