The Carpenter's Son Lyrics

I've read the stories from the bible

About a man who built things with his hands

His heart was good, this man was special

And for him the Lord he had a plan

God came to him one night in dreams and told him

That he would take his wife and venture forth

That they'd have a child who would change the world forever

And so it came that a carpenter's son was born

Jesus he grew quickly into manhood

He traveled helping people far and wide

He talked and preached about our home in glory

Where if we believed we'd stand there by God's side

But there were forces in the world that meant to stop him

And he was nailed up on a cross and looked upon

But with his dying breath, with mercy he forgave them

And this carpenter's son arose and journeyed home

Now he's building me a mansion up in glory

With his own two hands he's building me a home

To get the key that opens up the door

He just wants me to believe

And have faith and do his will forevermore

Now he's building me a mansion up in glory

With his own two hands he's building me a home

To get the key that opens up the door

He just wants me to believe

And have faith and do his will forevermore
