Albany - - Music filled an Albany church tonight with the sounds of the season.

First Baptist Church presented "A Christmas Prayer".

The musical included a choir, orchestra, and a 12 member cast.

"A Christmas Prayer" is about a 20 year old man who experiences problems with his family, which negatively affects his outlook on life.

Loved ones begin to pray for him and after a while notice a positive turn in the man's life.

People who came out say it shares the message of the holidays in a different light. 

 "Well it's Christ's birthday. That's what it's all about. So I wanted to see a different portrayal of it," says Tom Hall.

The musical included holiday hits like Angels We Have Heard on High, Oh Holy Night and We Three Kings of Orient Are.
