In My Father's House (Verse 1) The dust was rising on the road back home Through the hills where the olive trees grow Mary turned around to call his name But the silence was all she would know A frantic heart and a father’s fear They retraced every step, every mile Searching the crowds for a twelve-year-old boy For the light of his innocent smile. (Chorus) But he wasn’t lost, no, he wasn’t strayed He was right where the foundation was laid With a mind like the stars and a heart like the sun The work of the Spirit had already begun He said, "Mother, don't weep; Father, don't be afraid, I’m just following the promise my Father has made." (Verse 2) They found him sitting in the temple hall With the teachers and the men of the Law They were marveling at the things he knew With a wisdom that left them in awe Mary reached out with a trembling hand Saying, "Son, we’ve been searching in pain" But Jesus looked up with a peaceful gaze Like the earth looking up at the rain. (Chorus) And he said, "I’m not lost, no, I haven’t strayed I’m right where the foundation was laid With a mind like the stars and a heart like the sun The work of the Spirit has already begun Don’t you know, don't you see, don't be afraid? I’m just following the promise my Father has made." (Bridge) He knew the path before his feet could walk it He knew the truth before his tongue could talk it A little boy with a heavy, holy crown Walking the line between the sky and the ground He loved his mother’s hand, he loved his father’s trade But he knew the price that had to be paid. (Guitar Solo / Instrumental Break) (Outro) He went back down to Nazareth then To grow in the stature of men But the fire in his soul was a quiet, steady flame He knew his purpose, he knew his name In his Father’s house... He was already home.
Lyrics
The dust was rising on the road back home
Through the hills where the olive trees grow
Mary turned around to call his name
But the silence was all she would know
A frantic heart and a father’s fear
They retraced every step, every mile
Searching the crowds for a twelve-year-old boy
For the light of his innocent smile.
But he wasn’t lost, no, he wasn’t strayed
He was right where the foundation was laid
With a mind like the stars and a heart like the sun
The work of the Spirit had already begun
He said, "Mother, don't weep; Father, don't be afraid,
I’m just following the promise my Father has made."
They found him sitting in the temple hall
With the teachers and the men of the Law
They were marveling at the things he knew
With a wisdom that left them in awe
Mary reached out with a trembling hand
Saying, "Son, we’ve been searching in pain"
But Jesus looked up with a peaceful gaze
Like the earth looking up at the rain.
And he said, "I’m not lost, no, I haven’t strayed
I’m right where the foundation was laid
With a mind like the stars and a heart like the sun
The work of the Spirit has already begun
Don’t you know, don't you see, don't be afraid?
I’m just following the promise my Father has made."
He knew the path before his feet could walk it
He knew the truth before his tongue could talk it
A little boy with a heavy, holy crown
Walking the line between the sky and the ground
He loved his mother’s hand, he loved his father’s trade
But he knew the price that had to be paid.
He went back down to Nazareth then
To grow in the stature of men
But the fire in his soul was a quiet, steady flame
He knew his purpose, he knew his name
In his Father’s house...
He was already home.
