벌스 1

Granddaddy put some oak
From the hill through an old sawmill
Built the porch we were sitting on
Like a rocking chair preacher
Told a story that was sweeter
Than the tea we were sipping on
Grandma dreamed of a wraparound
Took me a month
To get the last board down
I said ain’t that something
He said this ain’t nothing

코러스 1

Let me tell you
Bout a man whose hands built
More than I ever could
He set a world off
The rails on track
With some nails
Going into wood

코러스 2

He bore a cross that built a bridge
Ain’t no broken that He can’t fix
He can mend where you hurt
Let Him in and
Let Him get to work
He’s the carpenter

He said you shoulda
Seen me ‘fore He helped me
Break free from the chains
I was dragging round
We wouldn’t be here
Talking if I’d kept on walking
That road I was going down
Don’t ask me how He made anything
Out of the man I used to be
I was a worthless pile of scraps
He said I’m used to using that

Build you up on solid ground
