The "Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy" is a dance for a ballerina. It is the third movement in The Nutcracker Suite pas de deux. The melody has transcended ballet to become shorthand for Christmas itself. the ballet is set on Christmas Eve at the foot of a Christmas tree in a child's imagination. The plot is an adaptation of E. T. A. Hoffmann's 1816 short story The Nutcracker and the Mouse King.

“The Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy” was one of the earliest uses of the celesta. For centuries, people had been looking for a keyboard instrument that would hit bells. With harpsichord, it was plucking strings; piano, it was hammers hitting strings. The celesta uses felt hammers to hit the bells. It’s a much more smooth and beautiful sound. The inventor called it celesta because “celestial” — heaven. He thought it sounded heavenly.

LYRICS:
I read about a man one day
He wasted not his time away
He prayed to God
Every morning, noon, and night
He cared not for the things avail
But trusted one who never fails
Oh, Daniel prayed
Each morning, noon, and night

Oh, Daniel served his living God
While upon the earth he trod
He prayed to God each morning, noon, and night
He cared not for the king's decrees
But trusted God to set him free
Oh, Daniel prayed every morning, noon, and night

They locked him in the lions' den
Because he could not honor men
But he prayed to God
Every morning, noon, and night
The jaws were locked; it made him shout
And God soon brought him safely out
Oh, Daniel prayed
Every morning, noon, and night

Oh, Daniel served his living God
While upon the earth he trod
He prayed to God each morning, noon, and night
He cared not for the king's decrees
But trusted God to set him free
Oh, Daniel prayed every morning, noon, and night

Now, brother, let us watch and pray
Like Daniel did from day to day
He prayed to God
Every morning, noon, and night
We, too, can gladly dare and do
And pray to God he'll see us through
Oh, Daniel prayed
Every morning, noon, and night

Oh, Daniel served his living God
While upon the earth he trod
He prayed to God each morning, noon, and night
He cared not for the king's decrees
But trusted God to set him free
Oh, Daniel prayed every morning, noon, and night

Berlin Reed Organ

1 Standing by a purpose true,
heeding God's command,
honor them, the faithful few!
All hail to Daniel's band!

Refrain:
Dare to be a Daniel!
Dare to stand alone!
Dare to have a purpose firm!
Dare to make it known!

2 Many mighty men are lost,
daring not to stand,
who for God had been a host
by joining Daniel's band. [Refrain]

3 Many giants, great and tall,
stalking through the land,
headlong to the earth would fall,
if met by Daniel's band. [Refrain]

4 Hold the gospel banner high;
on to vict'ry grand;
Satan and his host defy,
and shout for Daniel's band. [Refrain]

LYRICS:
You're standing at a mountain
That you know you cannot climb
Your enemy's approaching
You hear him coming from behind
There is trouble all around you
There's no place to run away
But there's a voice
That's deep inside you
Saying it's time to stand in faith
So dare to believe
That miracles happen, yeah!
That mountains still move
And demons must flee
For the God that we serve
He is much more than able, yes He's
So don't be afraid
Stand up and say
I dare to believe
There's a miracle inside you
It's just a mustard seed of faith
But by the mighty hand of God now
You know that tiny seed was placed
And though this world
May try to crush you
It can never keep you down
Soon the life of God inside you
Will come breaking through the ground
I dare to believe
That miracles happen, yeah!
And the mountains still move
And demons must flee
For the God that we serve
He is mush more than able, yes He's
So don't be afraid
Stand up and say
I dare to believe
No matter what the doubters tell you
No matter what the devil says
No matter what anybody
Anybody else does
You just keep trusting Jesus
You'll see and won't be long
God is right and the doubters are wrong
Just say
I dare to believe
Ooh, That miracles happen, yeah!
The mountains still move
And demons must flee
For the God that we serve
He is mush more than able, yes He's
So don't be afraid
Stand up and say
I dare to believe
I dare to believe
That miracles happen, yeah!
The mountains still move
And demons must flee
For the God that we serve
He is mush more than able, yes He's
So don't be afraid
Stand up and say
I dare to believe
No don't be afraid
Just stand up and say
I dare to believe
No don't be afraid
Just stand up and say
I dare to believe

This song is about a man at different stages of his life. It's a Christian theme of how we all stumble upon hard times in life, and about how God dares us to move and get back on our feet. It's about how there's a difference between who we are and who we should be. This song begins talking about how we all have sin and how we all just need to face it: "Welcome to the planet, Welcome to existence." This song also talks about how we need to realize our errors and turn to a new way of life: "Between who you are and who you could be. Between how it is and how it should be."
LYRICS:
Welcome to the planet
Welcome to existence
Everyone's here
Everyone's here
Everybody's watching you now
Everybody waits for you now
What happens next?
What happens next?

I dare you to move
I dare you to move
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor
I dare you to move
I dare you to move
Like today never happened
Today never happened before

Welcome to the fallout
Welcome to resistance
The tension is here
The tension is here
Between who you are and who you could be
Between how it is and how it should be

I dare you to move
I dare you to move
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor
I dare you to move
I dare you to move
Like today never happened
Today never happened

Maybe redemption has stories to tell
Maybe forgiveness is right where you fell
Where can you run to escape from yourself?
Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna go?
Salvation is here

I dare you to move
I dare you to move
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor
I dare you to move
I dare you to move
Like today never happened
Today never happened
Today never happened
Today never happened before
