G In a manger C filled with hay G The virgin mother's C baby lay
G While shepherds stood there C trembling at the D sight
{G}This child was the C King of Kings
G But God who knows and C sees all things
Sent a G simple man to D show the world the G light
Chorus:
He sent a C carpenter, a C carpenter to Am build His kingdom {G}here
C A carpenter, He sent a C carpenter
To Am build on faith not D fear
Em The proof lay in those nail C scarred hands
Em So every heart could C understand
He sent a G carpenter to D build His kingdom C here
G His father's C house here on earth
G Was built on faith and C by His works
G Grew strong just like the C rock it stood D upon
G Then God spoke to His C only Son
G And told him that his job was C done
When that G last nail was D finally driven G home.
Chorus; Instrumental
Em The proof lay in those nail C scarred hands
Em So every heart could C understand
He sent a G carpenter to D build His kingdom C here
He sent a G carpenter to D build His kingdom {G}here
