On My Mother's Side

Ted, Dana, Dennis & Jim

Just a young boy, in the temple that day
Shared with the doctors and they were so amazed
Never had they seen one so you 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 Emmanuael
How old are you?
On my mother's side now I'm 12 years
On my Father's side I'vve just always been
Where are you from? On my mother's side I'm from Bethleham
On my Father's side it's New Jerusalem
What's 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

Piano turnaround

He was the Son of man, yet the Son of God
And I can't help but wonder how Joseph must have felt
When 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

Chorus

What's your name Son?
On my mother's side, my name is Jesus
On my Father's side they call me Emmanuael
How old are you?
On my mother's side now I'm 12 years
On my Father's side I'vve just always been
Where are you from? On my mother's side I'm from Bethleham
On my Father's side it's New Jerusalem
What's 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
