Resurrection SongAct 8 - The Foot Of The CrossStage Note: The Scene does not contain any Drama Room activity .... instead, this scene immediately begins with actors lines in front of and behind the Scrim. The area behind the Scrim is not lighted. Scrim: The Scrim should still be lit in a dark, reddish color, the silhouettes of the Cross of Christ and the two thieves should still be seen. The crowd is no longer visible, and the other disciples have walked around behind the Scrim and are now in silhouette at the foot of Jesus' cross. Only Mary Magdalene and the Roman Centurion remain on-stage in front of the Scrim. Song: "Lover of My Soul" (Introduction)(Verse 1 - Centurion) I'm the one, I drove the nails that tore into His flesh. I'd cursed at Him And mocked His name, And caused Him so much pain. Yet in all of His agony, He looked on me in love. (Chorus - Centurion) So, how could I not choose Him? How could I refuse, To love the one still loving me In spite of all I've done? So, how could I not choose Him? Oh, how could I refuse, How could I refuse to love The lover of my soul? (Instrumental Interlude) (Verse 2 - Mary Magdalene) I was there, I saw Him bleed, And I heard His cry for help. All my life was spent on me, Yet it left me bound in chains. Yet in all of His suffering, He somehow knew my need. (Chorus - Mary Magdalene) So, how could I not choose Him? How could I refuse, To love the one still loving me In spite of all I've done? So, how could I not choose Him? Oh, how could I refuse, How could I refuse to love The lover of my soul? (Chorus - Duet) How could I not choose Him? Oh, how could I refuse, To love the one still loving me In spite of all I've done? So, how could I not choose Him? Oh, how could I refuse, How could I refuse to love The lover of my soul? (Chorus - Duet) How could I not choose Him? Oh, how could I refuse, To love the one still loving me In spite of all I've done? So, how could I not choose Him? Oh, how could I refuse, How could I refuse to love, How could I refuse to love, How could I refuse to love The lover of my soul? Stage Note: Everything except the silhouette of the Cross of Christ goes to out, then we see Jesus' body being lowered from the cross while the song finishes playing. END OF SCENE |
