I Have a Dream

By George Grace

This one-act play is for the ages one through fifteen years of age, in hope of beyond. I am in hope that one person will come and give their life to Christ Jesus. If I can touch just one life from the East Coast to the West Coast on my way home and just one from the North Coast to the South Coast, then I have done just one thing good in my life on my way home. I have a dream someone will come to Christ, or come back to Christ Jesus our Lord. This one-act play, I Have a Dream, will become the center of all our lives, that if we come back to Jesus. And it will, if we give our heart to Jesus Christ. We, as born-again children of Christ Jesus, should take this from door to door, city to city, town to town, state to state, and country to country and say this dream can become real by me and by you when we let Christ Jesus be the center post in our life. Walk, speech, work… I have a dream that one day, cancer, stroke, diabetes, respiratory problems, mental illness, AIDS, and all other sickness will be done away with. This is my dream (2 Chron. 7:14).

Narrator

The Britannica Junior Encyclopedia, published in 1934, revised in 1952 (about sixty-six years ago), states, To get any idea of what in Egypt meant to the history of the world, one has to begin thinking in thousands of years. Go back 7,000 years at a single jump and civilization is beginning in Egypt. In the rest of the world, so far as is known, man is a savage. Since it began so long ago, one should naturally expect Egyptian civilization to have developed many inventions for mankind. Some scholars believe that nearly all the human arts were invented in Egypt. Agriculture, building in brick and stone, the making of glass, the smelting of metals (beginning with gold), and the making of sea-going ships began in Egypt. Art and the religion that taught life of the soul after death spread all over the world.

More than 1,900 years ago, a man came into the world whose presence was to have a profound influence on humanity. Our main sources of information are the Three Gospels according to Matthew, Mark, and Luke. These are known as the Synoptic Gospels because they have a common aspect closely resembling on another and use much of the same material. The history of Jesus is further aided by the Fourth Gospel that according to John the Epistles of Paul. I have a dream. Psalm 68:31, St. Matthew 1:1, St. Mathew 2:13–14.

Go down, Moses… When Israel was in Egypt’s land, let my people go. Oppressed so hard they could not stand, let my people go. Go down, Moses. Go down, Moses; way down in Egypt’s land. Go down, go down, Moses. Tell old Pharaoh, let my people go. Thus said the Lord, bold Moses said. Let my people, my people go lest not I’ll smite your firstborn dead, let my people go. Go down, Moses. Go down, Moses; way down in Egypt’s land. Go down, go down, Moses. Tell old Pharaoh, let my people go. No more shall they in bondage toil. Let my people go, let them come out with Egypt’s spoil, let my people go. Go down, Moses. Go down, Moses; way down in Egypt’s land. Go down, go down, Moses. Tell old Pharaoh let my people go.
