ON MY MOTHER'S SIDE

Just a young boy, in the Temple that day
Shared with the doctors and they were so amazed,
Never had they seen on so young and speak so swift
They asked him many questions
The conversation went like this:
Chorus
(What's your name son?)
On my mother's side, my name is Jesus
On my father's side they call me Emanuel
(How old are you?)
On my mother's side, now I'm 12 years
On my father's side, I've just always been
(Where are you from?)
On my mother's side, I'm from Bethlehem
On my father's side, it's New Jerusalem
(What is your plan?)
On my mother's side, I'll be crucified
On my father's side, in 3 days I will rise
And I'll sit on my father's side
(Turnaround)
He was the Son of man, yet the Son of God
And I can't help but wonder how Joseph must have felt
Through an open door one day he heard his Son reply
I am the King of Kings you see, that's on my father's side
Repeat chorus
Back...
