Today... 'The Boy Jesus
Where has He gone? Where can He be?
They traced their footsteps in order to see
and found him there in the temple courts
With the teachers sharing His thoughts
All who heard his answers were amazed
As in wonder they stood there and gazed
'My Son, Why have you treated us like this '
'We thought that something was amiss'
'Why were you searching for Me' He replied
In My Father's House I wanted to abide
He was determined to do His Fathers will
And the words of all the prophets to fulfil
For this Boy Jesus grew up into a man
To completely fulfil salvations plan
And all who search for Him will find
Life everlasting and peace of mind
