Original Cast of His Story the Musical
The Reason I Came
[ANDREW]
Imagine twelve kids
That don't know what they're doing
Following a Man because He's
“The Way” well we’ll see, yeah
I'm not convinced
But I'm glad we're introduced
And I'll gladly introduce Him to my family
[JUDAS]
Peter can we go to your house?
[ANDREW]
Yeah, I'm starving
[MARK]
Let's dine!
[ANDREW]
Jesus, we could use those fish right now
[JUDAS]
Or some water?
[ANDREW]
Make that wine
[MARK ]
Ha!
[PETER]
Well of course you can, come on over
My mother-in-law’s an excellent cook
It's just around the corner
And and through this door
[JUDAS]
Peter, look
[MOM]
Peter I’m sick with the fever and I wanna help
But I just can't
[PETER]
Mother I'm sorry you’re sick
[MOM]
Who is this?
[JESUS]
Just take My hand
For this is the reason I came
To laugh with the the mute
To run with the lame
This is the reason I came
Yeah you see now?
Oh You better believe it
So watch closely don't look away
For this is the reason I came
[PETER]
We watched the fire leave her body
[ANDREW]
We watched her rise up
[PETER]
We watched Jesus smile softly
[JUDAS]
She peaked her eyes up
[MOM]
Did you say that Jesus was Your name?
[JESUS]
Yes, and this is the reason I came
[DISCIPLES]
You wanna see now?
Oh You better believe it?
So watch closely don't look away
For this is the reason He came
[JESUS]
This is the reason I came
