[Verse 1]
D Em C D
Jesus was a carpenter, and wise
G D A D
He could build a house or a table with his hands

And in his spare time, he would preach and teach and pray
[Chorus]
G D Em C
He was just a carpenter, but he was also God's son
G D Em C
He came to earth to teach us how to love and live
G D Em C
He died on the cross for our sins, but he rose again
G D G
And now he sits at the right hand of the Father
[Verse 2]
