My Son! (Trilogy, 2nd Mvt) [Production Edition] Music by Timothy S. Klugh. Lyrics by Nancy Lincoln and Timothy S. Klugh. Copyright © 2005, 2010 Nancy Reiber Lincoln and Timothy S. Klugh. All Rights Reserved.
He said, "Mother, I must leave you now to do my Father's work." Although my heart is breaking, I could not tell him how I hurt. He was born a child of wonder, and I knew this day would come, But I saw not just a Savior then, I also saw my son.
I remember in the temple when the wise men stood in awe That one so young could speak so boldly about our holy law. Now you're grown; God's will is known; You are His chosen one. If I could take this cup from you... To me, you are my son.
And you shall reign, the angel said, throughout eternity. God gave the world a Savior when He gave a son to me.
Your burden will be heavy, but you never will deny The task that you were born to do, as the angel prophesied. In my heart I will take ev'ry step with you, and when your journey's done, As the world beholds its Savior, I will hold the Lord, my son. As the world beholds its Savior, I will hold the Lord, my son.
