2. Now on the day when the spirits sing
Narrator
Now on the day when the spirits sing (Job 1:6)
Gathered to be with God,
Deep joy abounds in heaven’s halls,
Glorious is the sound:

Chorus
All Glory ! Power! Wisdom and Might!
Love never ending here in our sight.
Thank you Lord for our glorious life,
We are free from earthly strife.
Thank you Lord for every day.
We see you when we pray!

All Glory ! Power! Wisdom and Might!
Love never ending here in our sight.
Thank you Lord for all of our skills,
We are pure for you have our wills.
Being your person makes us sing.
Thank you Heavenly King.

Narrator
Now on the day when the spirits sing
Gathered to be with God,
Past leader of the angels came,
“Satan” was his name.

God
Satan! How I wish you’d love me
Like you did so long ago.
Have you come to say you’re sorry?
Will you sing or be my foe?

Satan
I’m so happy.
I’m delighted.
I’ve been ‘round and around.
To and fro, up and down, (Job 1:7, 2:2)
I’ve seen the world.

I’m so happy.
I’m delighted.
All follow me, me, me,
To and fro, up and down,
I run the world.

I’m the prince
Of the earth.
All know my name, a prince! a prince!
To and fro, up and down,
I own the world. It’s mine!

God
Satan. Satan, have you seen my servant Job?
He’s not your man.
Satan, Satan, have you seen my servant Job?
Blameless.
Upright.
Not of your world.

Satan
Well, of course not.
How could he
Follow my way?
You’ve blessed him
Beyond measure.
Bought his soul with pay.

Does he love you?
I doubt it.
He’s spoiled
With your protective fence.
Strike him.
Then I’ll have his soul.

God
For you, then, I permit it.
May you see love’s power work in faith.
And return, prince, to love me,
For Job will always be my saint.

You may do the evil you intend,
But touch not his health,
You’re not his friend.
And come back,
I miss you. I long for your song.
