G5                       C5
Just a young boy in the temple one day
G5                                    D5
Shared with the doctors they were so amazed
G5                          C5              G5
Never had they seen one so young speak so swift
                                  D5                     G5
They asked him many questions the conversation went like this


G5
What?s your name son
      C5                        G5
On my mother?s side my name is Jesus
          D5                         G5
But on my Father?s side they call me Emmanuel


G5
How old are you
      C5                     G5
On my mother?s side now I?m twelve years
          D5                      G5
But on my Father?s side I?ve just always been


G5
Where you from
      C5                      G5
On my mother?s side I?m from Bethlehem
          D5                     G5
But on my Father?s side it?s New Jerusalem


G5
What?s your plan
      C5                     G5
On my mother?s side I?ll be crucified
          D5
But on my Father?s side in three days I?ll arise
                            G5
And I?ll sit by my Father?s side


                      C5
He was the Son of God yet the son of man
G5                                                D5
And I can?t help but wonder how Joseph must have felt
G5                                C5             G5
Through an open door that day he heard his son reply
                              D5                    G5
You see I?m the King of Kings that?s on my Father?s side
