The 40 Days Project: 40 Months: Annunciation to Nazareth
<<< Previous Song
The time has come to finally go home There's no longer a need for us to roam The child we've nurtured has surely grown But it is for certain, can't be on his own Herod is dead, his body wastes But his own son still rules If we return to our old town, It's likely we'd be the fools A dream has awakened The path is now clear We alter our plans We don't live in fear We can't risk the child We will go elsewhere To Galilee, Nazareth Should be safe there

Commentary
Matthew 21-23 - So he got up, took the child and his mother and went to the land of Israel. But when he heard that Archelaus was reigning in Judea in place of his father Herod, he was afraid to go there. Having been warned in a dream, he withdrew to the district of Galilee, and he went and lived in a town called Nazareth. So was fulfilled what was said through the prophets, that he would be called a Nazarene.
