He was just a carpenter by trade.
He learned from his father at a very early age.
There was something special in the man,
there was much more to his life
than just working with his hands

and He'd say There's no home I could design that would match the one you'd find, when you leave this world behind, if you only took the time.

Chorus:
Love your neighbour like your brother
treat your brother like a friend
always turn the other cheek
help the weary and the weak
make the time for young and old
and as your life unfolds
each kindness that you've shown
will be the nails and hammers
as you build your final ladder
in the manner of the carpenter of old

You could feel compassion in his eyes
only fools that hurt him did not realize
That he was speaking to us all
the righteous and the mighty
the silent and the small

and He'd say There's no home I could design that would match the one you'd find, when you leave this world behind, if you'd only take the time.

Chorus:
Love your neighbour like your brother
treat your brother like a friend
always turn the other cheek
help the weary and the weak
make the time for young and old
and as your life unfolds
each kindness that you've shown
will be the nails and hammers
as you build your final ladder
in the manner of the carpenter of old

He was just a carpenter by trade.
He learned from his father at a very early age.

  • Diggin Up Bones
    "Last night I dug your picture out from our old dresser drawer
    I set it on the table and I talked to it till four
    I read some old love letters right up till the break of dawn
    Yeah, I've been sittin' alone diggin' up bones..."
  • On The Other Hand
    "On one hand I count the reasons I could stay with you
    And hold you close to me, all night long.
    So many lover's games I could play with you
    and on that hand I see no reason why it's wrong..."
  • Forever And Ever, Amen
    "You may think that I'm talking foolish
    You've heard that I'm wild and I'm free
    You may wonder how I can promise you now
    This love that I feel for you..."
  • Too Gone Too Long
    "You've been too gone for too long
    It's too late to come back now
    Its been so long since you walked out my door
    Now you're just an old song nobody sings any more..."
  • Deeper Than The Holler
    "Well I've heard those city singers singin 'bout how they can love
    Deeper than the oceans higher than the stars above
    Well I come from the country and I know I ain't seen it all
    But I heard that oceans salty and the stars they sometimes fall..."
  • Is It Still Over?
    "Being without you has turned out to be so inconvenient
    And wishing I was with you just seems to use up all my time
    You've been gone so long that it's hard to recall
    Just how the dream went..."
  • Hard Rock Bottom Of Your Heart
    "Since the day I was led to temptation
    And in weakness did let your love down
    I have prayed that time and compassion
    You'd come around..."
  • He Walked On Water
    "He wore starched white shirts buttoned at the neck
    He'd sit in the shade and watch the chickens peck
    His teeth were gone but what the heck
    I thought that he walked on water..."
