It’s one thing to perform a U2 song inside a Cathedral — and it’s an entirely other thing when U2 frontman is sitting right in front of you, listening.

The Cathedral performed U2’s “MLK” as part of Bono’s recent conversation at the Cathedral with Canon Historian Jon Meacham. Soloist Ben Hawker got a big hug from Bono after.

Here’s the lyrics, from the band’s 1984 release “The Unforgettable Fire.”

SleepSleep tonightAnd may your dreamsBe realizedIf the thundercloudPasses rainSo let it rainRain down on himMmmSo let it beMmmSo let it be
