[Verse 1]
In a manger [C]filled with hay
[G]The Virgin Mother's bab[C]y lay
[G]While shepherds stood tre[C]m

This child was [C]the King of Kings
[G]But God who knows and see[C]s all things

the world the [G]light

[Verse 2]
[G]Chorus
He sent a [C]carpenter
A carpenter to build His
kingdom [G]here
[C]A carpenter
He sent a carpenter
To [Am]build on faith not [D]fear
[Em]The proof lay in those nail scar[C]red hands
[Em]So every heart could und[C]erstand
He sent a [G]carpenter to
[D]Build His kingdom here

[Verse 3]
His father's [C]house here on [G]earth
Was built on faith and [C]by His works
[G]Grew strong just like the

Then God [G]spoke to His [C]only Son

When that [G]last nail was fi
[D]nally driven [G]home[C]
