~ On My Father's Side ~

Just a Young boy in the temple one day
Shared with the Doctor they were so amazed
Never had they seen, one So Young speak so swift
They asked Him many questions
The conversation went like this:



(Man Speaking) What's your name Son?
On my mother's side, my name is Jesus
But on my Father's side, they call me Emmanuel

(Man Speaking) How old are you?
On my Mother's side, now I'm 12 years
But on my Father's side, I've just always been

(Man Speaking) Where are you from?
On my mother's side, I'm from Bethlehem
But on my Father's side, it's New Jerusalem

(Man Speaking) What's your plan?
On my Mother's side, I'll be crucified
But on my Father's side, in 3 days I will rise
and I'll sit at my Father's Side



He was the son of God, yet the son of man
And I can't help but wonder, how Joseph must have felt
Through an open door that day, he heard his son reply
He said, "You see, I'm the king of kings
That's on my Father's side."



(Man Speaking) What's your name Son?
On my mother's side, my name is Jesus
But on my Father's side, they call me Emmanuel

(Man Speaking) How old are you?
On my Mother's side, now I'm 12 years
But on my Father's side, I've just always been

(Man Speaking) Where are you from?
On my mother's side, I'm from Bethlehem
But on my Father's side, it's New Jerusalem

(Man Speaking) What's your plan?
On my mother's side, I'll be crucified
But on my Father's side, in 3 days I will rise
And I'll sit at my Father's Side
