They have recently discovered that the word they thought meant Jesus was a Carpenter, really meant that he was a stonemason. So I guess he really is the 'Rock! of our salvation'

Lyrics
The Carpenter Song
Charles W - T Consaul
1. GOD made him a son
To teach us all to walk his way
To tell us of his promises
And warn of judgement day
Teach us to forgive
And show us all the way to pray
But as long as he was stuck on Earth
He had to know a trade
Now a Baker always ate well
But he didn't get no daugh
And he could have been a miner
But no one was using coal
He could have been a doctor
But to heal us where it hurts
He stepped down from the clouds
And he became a Carpenter
C: Jesus was a Carpenter, He mended my heart
After Saten and his evil finally tore it apart
I thought that I was all alone
And that I'd gone astray
But Jesus heard me calling when I prayed
2. I can just imagine
That strong man from Galilee
Getting called to fix a table
By a broken Pharisee
How he cut and sawed and measured out
The new and better part
Then asked him if he'd like him to check his heart
Later on I know
That he just had to quit his trade
For the task of saving people
Who were lonely and afraid
But somewhere up in Heaven
Lie a lot of mended hearts
If Jesus hadn't fixed 'em
They would still be torn apart
C2: Jesus was a Carpenter
He mended my soul
After Saten's evil busted it
Right out of control
Scattered all the pieces
When he threw them away
But Jesus heard me calling when I prayed
Repeat First Chorus
