HIS FATHER'S BUSINESS

Jessie R. Richardson

Let our dear children find their way
As Jesus did on that far day,
When at the age of twelve he knew
His place was in the temple.

His loved ones had not seen him there,
And fruitless searching and despair
Led them to turn where mortals are.
His place was in the temple.

They found him, questioning anew;
His Father's business well he knew.
This holy purpose for each son:
His place is in the temple.
