The Finding - Danielle Rose

Twelve years ago it all began

With an angel in my dream

I took Mary as my wife

And we united in our holy virginity

Simeon and Anna announced his destiny

Who am I that God should be obedient to me

One day a carpenter's son will be nailed to a tree

Three days ago I held my child's small hands

God's hands that made the morning

I am father to a king

Who has not come to rule the world

But now my child is gone

What have I done wrong

God left me without warning

Why would God cause me such distress

Have I failed to live in faithfulness

Where did you go Jesus

I've been searching for days

Calling out your name with every prayer I pray

See the tears of a father in search of a son

I'm so afraid I did not know quite how to love

Trouble is I didn't notice right away

That you were gone

I went searching for your presence

Among friends and family:

Never has one day felt so long

I did not find you there

So I turned right back around

Oh where can my beloved child be found

In the streets and squares of Jerusalem

Where is my beloved now

Where did you go Jesus

I've been searching for days

Calling out your name with every prayer I pray

See the tears of a father in search of a son

I'm so afraid I did not know quite how to love

Desperate for grace

I went with Mary to the temple to pray

We were astonished to find

Jesus teaching the elders

Who looked with wonder at his face

I ran to embrace him

"Oh son why have you done this to us

We've been looking for you

We have been so anxious so anxious

So anxious

Jesus turned and said

"Why were you looking for me

Did you not know that in my Father's house I'd be

You're the earthly father of the heavenly Father's son

I will hide in your home till my hour comes "

Jesus spoke in words I could not comprehend

All I know is but my son was lost

And has been found again

I love him as my child but revere him as my God

I'm the chosen father of the Lord's own perfect love

What joy it is to find God's perfect love

God's perfect love
