Lyrics
It took a carpenter to tear down my walls
It took a stronger hand than mine
And when He looked at me
You know He made me see I was blind, yeah
He put my feet on the ground
I put my eyes to the sky
And then I realized
It took a carpenter to tear down my walls
Well I was livin' from night to night
Just gettin' high, gettin' by right
I was buildin' up walls so high
And hidin' from the light
While I was sleepin' in the summer shade
He was watchin' every move I made
In my house on the hill, yeah
You know I'd be there still, yes I would
It took a carpenter to tear down my walls
It took a stronger hand than mine
And when He looked at me
You know He made me see I was blind, yeah
He put my feet on the ground
I put my eyes to the sky
And then I realized
It took a carpenter to tear down my walls
Ooh, I was a fortress, I was made of stone
In a house that never was my home
He kept chippin' away, yes He did
'Til He made me see the stone was clay
And then He took it away
It took a carpenter to tear down my walls
It took a stronger hand than mine
And when He looked at me
You know He made me see I was blind, yeah
He put my feet on the ground
I put my eyes to the sky
And then I realized
It took a carpenter to tear down my walls
It took a carpenter to tear down my walls
