Granddaddy put some oak from the hill through an old sawmill
Built the porch we were sittin' on
Like a rockin' chair preacher told a story that was sweeter
Than the tea we were sippin' on
Grandma dreamed of a wraparound
Took me a month to get the last board down
I said, "Ain't that somethin'?"
He said, "This ain't nothin'"
Let me tell you 'bout a Man whose hands built more than I ever could
Hе set a world off the rails on track with some nails goin' into wood
Hе bore a cross that built a bridge
Ain't no broken that He can't fix
He can mend where you're hurt
Let Him in and let Him get to work
He's the carpenter
Oh
He said, "You shoulda seen me 'fore He helped me break free
From the chains I was draggin' 'round
We wouldn't be here talkin' if I kept on walkin'
That road I was goin' down
Don't ask me how He made anything
Out of the man I used to be
I was a worthless pile of scraps"
He said, "I'm used to usin' that"
Let me tell you 'bout a Man whose hands built more than I ever could
He set a world off the rails on track with some nails goin' into wood
He bore a cross that built a bridge
Ain't no broken that He can't fix
He can mend where you're hurt
Let Him in and let Him get to work
He's the carpenter
Oh, He's the carpenter
He'll carve you out, set you down
Build you up on solid ground
Let me tell you 'bout a Man whose hands built more than I ever could
He set a world off the rails on track with some nails goin' into wood
He bore a cross that built a bridge
Ain't no broken that He can't fix
He can mend where you're hurt
Let Him in and let Him get to work
He's the carpenter
Oh, He's the carpenter
He's the carpenter
