26 (Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego face the audience as Shadrach addresses the king.) SHADRACH: "If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God we serve is able to deliver us from it, and he will deliver us from Your Majesty's hand. But even if he does not, we want you to know, Your Majesty, that we will not serve your gods or worship the image of gold you have set up." (Daniel 3:17-18) JAY: Hey, that's no problem. In any game, if you die, you just get another life. (music begins to "Mighty Deliverer") AHUNI: Ah, but this is not just a game, remember. It is virtual reality. This is real … the virtual part is that you are here to see it. (As the music begins, the market vendors bow. Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego remain standing. During the song, Shadrach, Meshach, Abednego, King Nebuchadnezzar, and a few Babylonians act out the story center stage.) SONG: "MIGHTY DELIVERER" Acting out the story of "Mighty Deliverer" … Intro Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego remain standing as the other Babylonians bow down. To one side of the stage our game players remain standing and watch. Verse 1 King Nebuchadnezzar (dressed in royal robes, a long big black beard, and crown) and two helpers enter and see the three boys standing back center. They approach them by the last line of the verse. When King Nebuchadnezzar "talks" he turns to the audience and with a cartoon-manner opens his mouth like he's yelling, pumps his fists and one foot into the air. Chorus Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego move down center stage. Your youngest choir kids enter dressed as "flames" (orange and red costumes, fanning their flowy arms). Entering with the "flames" is another person, dressed in all white, who joins the three boys standing in the furnace. All Babylonians, King Nebuchadnezzar, and the three boys do the choreography motions with the choir. For Preview Only
