The Rising Son is a folk musical in five acts. This book of songs/poems tells the story of Jesus as written in the Gospel of Christ--Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. This is an epic, timeless tale of grace, mercy and love. Follow the footsteps of Jesus of Nazareth and learn about the Savior of the world, The Rising Son: Come gather 'round, dear children. A story I will tell of the Rising Son from heaven in the land of Israel. Yes, as through this world He wandered, He met all kinds of funny men. Some scourged, beat, and mocked Him, and some He saved from their sin. And it's through this world, He rambled. It's through this world, He roamed. He was nailed to a rug- ged tree in order to save His very home.
