SKU: A0.784817

ACT ONE: Song 4. "The King," by Dennis McCorkle, is a contemporary pop-rock musical of the first two kings of Israel, Saul ben Kish and David ben Jesse and explores the contrasting lives and outcome of each man’s choices in life. [1 Samuel 8:11-18 - "And he said, This will be the manner of the king that shall reign over you: He will take your sons, and appoint them for himself, for his chariots, and to be his horsemen; and some shall run before his chariots. 12 And he will appoint him captains over thousands, and captains over fifties; and will set them to ear his ground, and to reap his harvest, and to make his instruments of war, and instruments of his chariots. 13 And he will take your daughters to be confectionaries, and to be cooks, and to be bakers. 14 And he will take your fields, and your vineyards, and your olive yards, even the best of them, and give them to his servants. 15 And he will take the tenth of your seed, and of your vineyards, and give to his officers, and to his servants. {officers: Heb. eunuchs} 16 And he will take your menservants, and your maidservants, and your goodliest young men, and your asses, and put them to his work. 17 He will take the tenth of your sheep: and you will be his servants. 18 And you shall cry out in that day because of your king which you shall have chosen you; and Yahveh will not hear you in that day."] SAMUEL tries to dissuade them by describing what a king will require of them. ["Ten Cents on the Dollar" – Samuel and the People]. The people however insist on a visible king to rule them. SAMUEL leaves to his home in the hills and on the way he is told by God that he will meet the man to be chosen as king.
