greg x volz - the carpenter lyrics
the lord showed me david, called from the field,
from leading his sheep, a sword to wield,
to lift up a people whose burden was hard
and to walk in the way of god.
but i am a carpenter,
i am a workman in this town,
i am a man who lives here, but my time is coming
around.
a vision i’ve seen,
a lesson i’ve learned,
a path is before me,
a season has turned,
and this have i known from the opening of my eyes;
a seed has to die to be life.
but i am a carpenter,
i am a workman in this town,
i am a man who lives here, but my time is coming
around.
father,
how long father?
my mother i’ll leave,
my shop i shall board,
the strands of my soul weave tightly in a cord,
and father, i pray that not one shall be lost,
yes, for them, in joy i’ll pay the cost.
no longer a carpenter,
no longer a workman in this town,
no longer a man living here,
and my home is not on this ground,
no longer a carpenter,
no longer a workman in this town,
no longer a man living here,
and my home is not on this ground.
