The Carpenter
C F
G
He was just a carpenter by trade, he learned from his father at a very
early age
C G7 C
F
There was something special in the man, there was much more to his life
C G C
Than just workin' with his hands, and He'd say...
Chorus:
G7
"There's no home I could design
That would match the one you'll find
When you leave this world behind
G G7
If you'll only take the time..
C C7.
To love your neighbour like your brother,
F
Treat your brother like a friend,
G
C
Always turn the other cheek, help the weary and the weak
C7
F.
Make the time for young and old, and as your life unfolds
G
Each kindness that you've shown
G7
Will be the nails and hammer as you build your final ladder
C
In the manner of the carpenter of old."
C G7 C
You could feel compassion in his eyes
F G
But only those who hurt him did not realize
C G7 C
That he was speaking to us all
F C G C
The righteous and the mighty, the silent and the small,
And he'd say...
(Repeat chorus)
C
He was just a carpenter by trade,
F G C
He learned from his father at a very early age.
