EPISODE 1 1
But in the Book of Life
A page has turned
More sacred and more precious
Than aII eIse
That which is written
Must now be accompIished
Amen
So Iet it therefore come to pass
The progress of the ages
Like a parabIe
In mid-course
May suddenIy take fIame
And faced by that dread grandeur
I’m prepared to suffer
And descend into the grave
And from the grave
On the third day I’II rise
Then, Iike a fIeet of barges
Down the stream
The centuries wiII fIoat forth
From the night
And make their way
Before my judgment seat
Are you getting off at the next stop?
-I asked if you were getting off.
-I’m not getting off! Not now or ever!
Why won’t you move, then?
I need to get out.
I’m reaIIy happy
that you need to get off.
-I’m a war veteran.
-That’s fantastic!
