I like to refer to this song as "The Gospel in 4 minutes". It is forever dedicated to one of the men the Lord has used to influence me greatly, Bill Bailey. Bill Bailey came Home on April 12, 2002. His influence lives on.

Lyrics
The Hands Of A Carpenter
First Verse
The Baby in a manger grew to be a Man
He learned to make a living with His hands
He made it look so simple with a hammer and some nails
Always workin' with the Master Plan
Bridge
But late at night you could find Him down upon His knees
Talkin' with the Father is how He found His strength
Chorus
He had the hands of a Carpenter, two arms reachin' out in love
And feet that brought the Good News to us all
He had eyes that could see through pain
He knew His loss would be our gain
And the hands of a Carpenter will lead us Home
Second Verse
Then with His disciples walkin' by His side
He took His Kingdom Message and changed lives
But soon the nails like He had drove would hold Him to a tree
Where He became God's final sacrifice
Bridge
Then upon the third day Jesus Christ arose
Now He's with the Father and He's workin' on our Homes
Repeat Chorus
