Jesus Was A Carpenter - Johnny Cash[00:00:00]

Jesus was a carpenter and He worked with a saw and a hammer[00:00:47]

And His hands could join a table true enough to stand forever[00:00:53]

And He might have spun His life out in the coolness of the morning[00:00:59]

But He put aside His tools and He walked the burning highways[00:01:05]

And He built His house from people just like these[00:01:11]

And He found them as they wandered through the wild Judean mountains[00:01:17]

And He found them as they pulled their nets upon the Sea of Galilee[00:01:23]

And for a thousand evenings while the day behind Him emptied[00:01:29]

He put aside His tools and stopped to touch the dying[00:01:35]

And He built His house from people just like these[00:01:41]

It was on a storming Sunday when He rode to old Jerusalem[00:01:47]

And the palms they cast before Him[00:01:53]

Were like the crimes they laid against Him[00:01:56]

It was on a storming Friday when He climbed the streets to Calvary[00:01:59]

And where He died today why they're selling beads and postcards[00:02:05]

And they tell us too that that was long ago[00:02:11]

But would He stand today upon the sands of California[00:02:20]

And walk the sweating blacktop of New York and Mississippi [00:02:26]

Would He be a guest on Sunday a vagrant on a Monday [00:02:32]

With the doors locked tight against His kind you know[00:02:38]

Oh come again now Jesus be a carpenter among us[00:02:44]

There are chapels in our discontent cathedrals to our sorrows[00:02:50]

And we dwell in golden mansions with the sand for our foundations[00:02:56]

And the raging water's rising and the thunder's all around us[00:03:02]

Won't You come and build a house on rock again[00:03:08]

Jesus was a carpenter and He worked with a saw and a hammer[00:03:15]

And His hands could form a table true enough to stand forever[00:03:20]
