#Subject: On My Father's Side, by the Village Singers
#
#"Ernie" Ford requested this song.  It works out great as a duet between a
#man and woman, and it has been my wife's and my favorite gospel song for
#about two years.  If you need it, there is an explanation of the Nashville
#Numbering System on Cowpie.  Just follow the links
#ResourcesLessonsNashvilleNumberSystem3 (Number 3 is mine, the others are
#equally good).

#JUST A YOUNG BOY IN THE TEMPLE ONE DAY
#SHARED WITH THE DOCTOR'S, THEY WERE SO AMAZED
#NEVER HAD THEY SEEN ONE SO YOUNG SPEAK SO SWIFT
#THEY ASKED HIM MANY QUESTIONS, THE CONVERSATION WENT LIKE THIS
#
#(Man Speak) WHAT'S YOUR NAME SON?
#     (Sing with harmony) ON MY MOTHER'S SIDE (Girl Sing solo) MY NAME IS
#JESUS
#     (Sing with harmony) BUT ON MY FATHER'S SIDE (Girl Sing solo) THEY CALL
#ME EMMANUEL
#
#(Repeat this singing pattern through all four stanzas of chorus.)
#
#HOW OLD ARE YOU?
#     ON MY MOTHER'S SIDE NOW I'M 12 YEARS
#     BUT ON MY FATHER'S SIDE I'VE JUST ALWAYS BEEN
#
#WHERE ARE YOU FROM?
#    ON MY MOTHER'S SIDE I'M FROM BETHLEHEM
#    BUT ON MY FATHER'S SIDE IT'S THE NEW JERUSALEM
#
#WHAT'S YOUR PLAN?
#     ON MY MOTHER'S SIDE I'LL BE CRUCIFIED
#     (Sing all with harmony) BUT ON MY FATHER'S SIDE IN 3 DAYS I WILL RISE
#    AND I'LL SIT AT MY FATHER'S SIDE
#
#HE WAS THE SON OF GOD YET THE SON OF MAN
#AND I CAN'T HELP BUT WONDER HOW JOSEPH MUST HAVE FELT
#THROUGH AN OLD THIN DOOR THAT DAY HE HEARD HIS SON REPLY
#HE SAID "YOU SEE I'M THE KING OF KINGS, THAT'S ON MY FATHER'S SIDE"
