(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.
