Carpenter of Nazareth (Uplifting Christian)

Verse 1

In Nazareth, before the dawn,

A lamp burned low, the work went on,

A carpenter with calloused hands,

Who knew the dust of common lands.

He learned the grain, He shaped the wood,

He served the weary as He could,

And in the quiet, day by day,

The Father formed the path and way.

Chorus

O Carpenter of Nazareth,

You bore our sorrow, conquered death,

From humble hands to Calvary,

You opened mercy’s door for me.

O Lamb of God, our debt is paid,

By Your wounded love, our fear is stayed,

Now every heart and nation sing:

Redeeming Christ, our risen King.

Verse 2

He walked the roads where sick ones cried,

He touched the outcast at His side,

He spoke of fields and bread and wine,

And called the lost to grace divine.

He saw the pride, the grief, the shame,

Yet loved the ones who cursed His name,

And set His face toward Jerusalem,

To bear the world and rescue them.

Chorus

O Carpenter of Nazareth,

You bore our sorrow, conquered death,

From humble hands to Calvary,

You opened mercy’s door for me.

O Lamb of God, our debt is paid,

By Your wounded love, our fear is stayed,

Now every heart and nation sing:

Redeeming Christ, our risen King.

Bridge

The hammer fell, the heavens grieved,

The darkest hour was not the end;

The stone was rolled, the grave was torn,

And hope arose on Easter morn.

Chorus

O Carpenter of Nazareth,

You bore our sorrow, conquered death,

From humble hands to Calvary,

You opened mercy’s door for me.

O Lamb of God, our debt is paid,

By Your wounded love, our fear is stayed,

Now every heart and nation sing:

Redeeming Christ, our risen King.

Outro

In every home, in every land,

Your saving grace still takes our hand;

O Carpenter, forever be

The living hope that carries me.
