It is a poetic treatment of the Life of Christ and is credited to poetess ( or poem factory) Helen Steiner Rice- who did many greeting-card poems for Hallmark. There are some theological flaws in the narrative. It seems to suggest a sort of JC-Underdog attitude , and seems to imply Christ's Supernatural powers were inoperative during his youth. the statement is made that he never traveled more than Fifty Miles from his home territory- Now, we know as a fact Paul the apostle went all over basically Greek territory and eventually Rome- these are well over 50 miles from Israel. It is a somewhat down-angle poem that makes too much of His shortcomings and ignores His Supernatural Powers!
