Joseph's Prayer to His Baby Son

Joseph's Prayer My name is Joseph And my friends all call me Joe But you believers know me As the daddy of your lord But not the father of his flesh Nor the father of his soul Because when it comes to those Our Holy Father claims them as his own I had a humble life From the day Jacob begat me And forever I've been told That Abraham begat our family tree And it grew many branches 14 generations times three Then it was up to me to start another branch I'm sure you see So I hooked up with Mary And we wed right away I never laid a hand on her I swear I never laid a hand on her I swear So what's a man to do As he has a wife with child And he knows all that I knew And all I know you now know too So we decided to run away Instead of hanging our heads in shame But an angel said to stay And rejoice in this new born king And embrace his name But I never laid a hand on her I swear I never laid a hand on her I swear
