about

Scene covers Luke 15:1-32, particularly the parable of a man who had two sons.

lyrics

There was a man who had two sons.
The younger went away,
To a distant land
And squandered there
his share of the estate

After all was spent, a famine hit,
and he worked in feeding pigs
The pigs he fed were satisfied,
but no one gave him anything

When he came to his senses, he said,

How many of my father's hired men
have food to spare, and here I am starving to death!
I will set out and go back
to my father and confess:

"Father, I have sinned
against heaven and against you.
I am no longer
worthy to be called your son;
make me like one of your hired men.'

But while he was still a long way off,
his father saw him
he was filled with compassion for him;
he ran and embraced him

He said, "Quick! Bring the best robe
and put sandals on his feet.
For this son of mine was dead
and is alive again;
Let's feast and celebrate!"

But the older son was mad
and refused to go in
He said, "All these years I slaved for you,
and never disobeyed.

Yet you never even gave a goat
so I could celebrate
But when this son who squanders your wealth comes home you treat him like a--saint!"

'My son,' the father said,
'you are always with me,
and all I have is yours.
But we had to celebrate
because your brother was dead
and is alive again
