Joseph: King of Dreams

(Squawks)

It's taking so long.

(Chuckles) Look at yourself, Father.

You'd think

this was your first child.

Tell me, were you this nervous

when I was born?

Well, yes and no.

It was different with your mother.

But with Rachel, we gave up hope.

We were told

she could never have children.

- Father! It's a boy!

- Father.

- Father, it's a boy!

- It's a boy.

(Baby crying)

My boy!

(Crying continues)

Can you believe it?

Rachel had a baby.

I guess it is a miracle.

(Baby coos)

O God, who is the father of us all,

you have blessed me

with a gift beyond all measure.

Within a barren wife,

amid the twilight skies of my life,

you've placed a treasure.

# A brightly shining star

where there was none

# You have granted us a son

(Rachel) # Dreams do come true.

- # Look at you

- (Father) # Joseph

(All) # Our baby brother

(Father) # He is special

# He is one of us,

we'll keep him from harm

# And we will teach him

# I will teach him

all he needs to know

# He'll stand apart from other men

# We'll stand beside him and together

# We will show him

what it means to be a family... #

Ah. Ooh.

# You are a miracle child

# You are the best

# You shine the brightest... #

- (Laughs)

- Joseph.

Come on. Come to Papa.

# Your trails be blessed

# Your trials the lightest

# You were made for better things

# You will share the air of kings

# You were born and fortune smiled

# For you are a miracle child

(Rachel) # The sun will rise

# Within your eyes

# The moon will light your smile

# And Heaven grace your gentle face

- # With power to beguile... #

- Good night, Joseph.

# You will wade through

the river of sorrows

# Warm and dry

(Father) # And angels

will guide your tomorrows

# This I prophesy

(Both) # For you are a miracle child

# You are the best

# You shine the brightest

# Your days will be cloudless

and mild

# Your trails be blessed

# Your trials the lightest

# You were made for better things

# You will share the air of kings

# You were born and fortune smiled

# For you are a miracle child

# Dearest Mother

# Beloved Father

# A coat of colours

bright as butterfly wings

# To remind me

# Things you've told me all my life

# I am special, I am smart

# I am somehow set apart

# Petty rules and limitations

don't apply

# For I

# Am a miracle child

# I can't be harmed

# I'm wrapped in rainbows

# Though fate

can be heartless and vile

# My life's been charmed

# And shall remain so

# I was made for something more

# Not to struggle but to soar

# To my fortune reconciled

# For I am a miracle child

# You won't see me bent over double

# In darkness and rubble

# Where mountains of trouble

are piled

# I was destined to fly

# Watch me light up the sky

# For I am a miracle child #

(Insects chirping)

(Bleating)

(Thunder rumbles)

(Growling)

(Barks)

(Wolves barking)

- (Jingles)

- (Sheep bleating)

- (Whispers) Hey...

- (Growls)

- No! Stop!

- What's wrong?

- What's going on?

- What did he say?

- Oh, it's Joseph.

- It was wolves!

Coming out of the shadows.

I was surrounded.

- They were all around...

- That's it?

- You woke us...for a dream?

- Ooh!

Quiet! You want to scare the sheep?

- The sheep. The ram.

- (Brothers murmuring)

- The wolves killed the ram.

- (Bleats)

It was dead. I... I don't understand.

It all seemed so real.

- Everything is fine, Joseph.

- It's over. Don't worry.

Boys, since you're up,

make yourselves useful.

Get to work before sunup.

(Brothers groan)

Thanks(!)

(Grumbling)

- Joseph, where are you going?

- Um, I...

You have studies.

But, I wanna go with them.
