I am most in majesty, in whom no beginning may be and no end." In <a href="/wiki/New_York_City" title="New York City">New York City</a>, <a href="/wiki/John_the_Baptist" title="John the Baptist">John the Baptist</a> arrives and calls a youthful cast of <a href="/wiki/Disciples_(Christianity)" class="mw-redirect" title="Disciples (Christianity)">disciples</a> to <a href="/wiki/Central_Park" title="Central Park">Central Park</a>, beckoning them to "Prepare Ye, The Way of the Lord". He baptizes his congregation in the <a href="/wiki/Bethesda_Terrace_and_Fountain" title="Bethesda Terrace and Fountain">Bethesda Fountain</a>. Jesus arrives and John baptizes Jesus, and the cast sings "Save The People" with Jesus. </p><p>They arrive at a scrapyard, where Jesus declares he came not to "abolish the law and the prophets but to complete". Jesus explains to the cast that those who keep the law will earn the highest place in the Kingdom of Heaven. The cast then acts out two parables, including the <a href="/wiki/Pharisee_and_the_Publican" title="Pharisee and the Publican">Pharisee and the Publican</a> about a <a href="/wiki/Self-righteousness" title="Self-righteousness">self-righteous</a> <a href="/wiki/Pharisee" class="mw-redirect" title="Pharisee">Pharisee</a> who thanks God he is not like other men, and the <a href="/wiki/Parable_of_the_Unforgiving_Servant" title="Parable of the Unforgiving Servant">Parable of the Unforgiving Servant</a>, which tells of a master who cancels his servant's debt. The servant then demands another man repay his owed debt in full. The master, hearing this, condemns the servant to prison. Jesus explains the moral: "Forgive your brothers from your heart." </p><p>The cast then sings "Day by Day". After this, Jesus explains to his disciples to "turn to them the other cheek", "hand over your coat" when they ask for your shirt, and walk with anyone for two miles. Jesus then teaches that no man can serve two masters (God and money). They arrive at the <a href="/wiki/Andrew_Carnegie_Mansion" title="Andrew Carnegie Mansion">Andrew Carnegie Mansion</a> and sing "Turn Back, O Man". The cast next performs the <a href="/wiki/Parable_of_the_Good_Samaritan" title="Parable of the Good Samaritan">Parable of the Good Samaritan</a>, with Jesus concluding his message is to do good deeds in secret. </p><p>Judas recites the parable of <a href="/wiki/Rich_man_and_Lazarus" title="Rich man and Lazarus">Lazarus and the rich man</a>. On Earth, a rich man lives in luxury while Lazarus lives in poverty. Upon dying, Lazarus is rewarded in heaven. The rich man dies and is sent to hell, where he begs <a href="/wiki/Abraham" title="Abraham">Abraham</a> to have Lazarus warn his living brothers about their eternal fate. Abraham declines, stating if they are not convinced by Moses and the Prophets, they will never be convinced by Lazarus. The cast proceeds to sing "Bless the Lord". </p><p>Jesus and the disciples recite the <a href="/wiki/Beatitudes" title="Beatitudes">Beatitudes</a>. Judas directs the final beatitude regarding persecution at Jesus, and Jesus quickly changes the subject by instead singing "All for the Best". Jesus teaches his next moral to pray for your enemies and bless those who persecute you. This is followed by the cast performing the <a href="/wiki/Parable_of_the_Sower" title="Parable of the Sower">Parable of the Sower</a>, to which Jesus explains the seed is the Word of God. A disciple then tells a story of a man who spent a lifetime acquiring treasures, and then dies before he can enjoy them. Jesus subsequently explains that God <a href="/wiki/Divine_providence" title="Divine providence">provides for all</a>, to which the cast sings "All Good Gifts". </p><p>At the <a href="/wiki/Cherry_Lane_Theatre" title="Cherry Lane Theatre">Cherry Lane Theatre</a>, the cast performs the parable of <a href="/wiki/Parable_of_the_Prodigal_Son" title="Parable of the Prodigal Son">The Prodigal Son</a>, complete with clips from several silent films. The cast next performs "Light of the World," explaining that Christ's Light shines in each person. Aboard a vessel ship, the Pharisees ask Jesus multiple questions, including should they pay taxes to the government. Jesus answers to give respectively to God and men which is theirs'. The Pharisees leave and Jesus accuses them of being liars and hypocrites. </p><p>Jesus predicts that his impending death, to which the cast console him by singing "By My Side". During the song, Judas foretells his betrayal of Jesus. They arrive on land and sing "Beautiful City". At the <a href="/wiki/Last_Supper" title="Last Supper">Last Supper</a>, Jesus tells them that one of them will betray him. Jesus tells Judas to do what he must do and Judas leaves. Jesus breaks the bread and shares the wine, and recites the traditional <a href="/wiki/Passover_Seder" title="Passover Seder">Seder</a> blessings. As Jesus blesses each disciple, they sing "On the Willows". Jesus then leaves and prays to God that the cup will pass from him. Jesus returns to find his disciples are sleeping. He wakes them up, but they all fall asleep again. Jesus warns them they will all betray him three times. </p><p>Judas returns with the police and <a href="/wiki/Kiss_of_Judas" title="Kiss of Judas">embraces Jesus</a>. Jesus is then held to an electric fence (representing the Cross), where he dies. The disciples carry Jesus's body as they reprise "Day by Day". </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Cast">Cast</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Godspell_(film)&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Cast"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li><a href="/wiki/Victor_Garber" title="Victor Garber">Victor Garber</a> as <a href="/wiki/Jesus_Christ" class="mw-redirect" title="Jesus Christ">Jesus Christ</a></li> <li>Katie Hanley as Katie, a <a href="/wiki/Diner" title="Diner">diner</a> <a href="/wiki/Waiting_staff" title="Waiting staff">waitress</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/David_Haskell" title="David Haskell">David Haskell</a> as <a href="/wiki/John_the_Baptist" title="John the Baptist">John the Baptist</a> and <a href="/wiki/Judas_Iscariot" title="Judas Iscariot">Judas Iscariot</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Merrell_Jackson" title="Merrell Jackson">Merrell Jackson</a> as Merrell, a garment trader</li> <li>Joanne Jonas as Joanne, a <a href="/wiki/Ballet_dancer" title="Ballet dancer">ballet dancer</a></li> <li>Robin Lamont as Robin, a <a href="/wiki/Window_shopping" title="Window shopping">window shopper</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Gilmer_McCormick" title="Gilmer McCormick">Gilmer McCormick</a> as Gilmer, a <a href="/wiki/Model_(person)" title="Model (person)">model</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Jeffrey_Mylett" title="Jeffrey Mylett">Jeffrey Mylett</a> as Jeffrey, a <a href="/wiki/Taxicab_driver" class="mw-redirect" title="Taxicab driver">taxi driver</a></li> <li>Jerry Sroka as Jerry, a <a href="/wiki/Parking_attendant" class="mw-redirect" title="Parking attendant">parking attendant</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Lynne_Thigpen" title="Lynne Thigpen">Lynne Thigpen</a> as Lynne, a <a href="/wiki/College" title="College">college</a> student</li></ul> <p>Garber, Haskell, Jonas, Lamont, McCormick and Mylett had performed in one, or more, of the original <a href="/wiki/Godspell#Carnegie_Mellon_University_(CMU)_(1970)" title="Godspell">1970 Carnegie Mellon creation</a> or the earliest commercial productions: 1971 Off-Broadway, 1971 Melbourne, and 1972 Toronto. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Musical_numbers">Musical numbers</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Godspell_(film)&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Musical numbers"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ol><li>"Prepare Ye the Way of the Lord" - John the Baptist</li> <li>"Save the People" - Jesus</li> <li>"<a href="/wiki/Day_by_Day_(Godspell_song)" title="Day by Day (Godspell song)">Day by Day</a>" - Robin Lamont</li> <li>"Turn Back, O Man" - Joanne Jonas</li> <li>"Bless the Lord" - Lynne Thigpen</li> <li>"All for the Best" - Jesus, Judas</li> <li>"All Good Gifts" - Merrell Jackson</li> <li>"Light of the World" - Jerry, Gilmer, Jeffrey, Robin</li> <li>"Alas for You" - Jesus (<a href="/wiki/John-Michael_Tebelak" title="John-Michael Tebelak">Tebelak</a> voices the <a href="/wiki/Pharisee" class="mw-redirect" title="Pharisee">Pharisee</a> Monster)</li> <li>"By My Side" - Katie</li> <li>"Beautiful City" - Company</li> <li>"Beautiful City" (Instrumental Reprise)</li> <li>"On the Willows"</li> <li>"Finale" - Jesus</li> <li>"Day by Day" (Reprise) - Company</li></ol> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Differences_from_the_musical">Differences from the musical</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Godspell_(film)&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Differences from the musical"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The song "Beautiful City" was written for and first included in the film, while the songs "Learn Your Lessons Well" and "We Beseech Thee" were omitted.
