《Jesus Was A Carpenter( (Live Version))》歌词

[00:00:00] Jesus Was A Carpenter - Johnny Cash

[00:00:47] Jesus was a carpenter and He worked with a saw and a hammer

[00:00:53] And His hands could join a table true enough to stand forever

[00:00:59] And He might have spun His life out in the coolness of the morning

[00:01:05] But He put aside His tools and He walked the burning highways

[00:01:11] And He built His house from people just like these

[00:01:17] And He found them as they wandered through the wild Judean mountains

[00:01:23] And He found them as they pulled their nets upon the Sea of Galilee

[00:01:29] And for a thousand evenings while the day behind Him emptied

[00:01:35] He put aside His tools and stopped to touch the dying

[00:01:41] And He built His house from people just like these

[00:01:47] It was on a storming Sunday when He rode to old Jerusalem

[00:01:53] And the palms they cast before Him

[00:01:56] Were like the crimes they laid against Him

[00:01:59] It was on a storming Friday when He climbed the streets to Calvary

[00:02:05] And where He died today why they're selling beads and postcards

[00:02:11] And they tell us too that that was long ago

[00:02:20] But would He stand today upon the sands of California

[00:02:26] And walk the sweating blacktop of New York and Mississippi

[00:02:32] Would He be a guest on Sunday a vagrant on a Monday

[00:02:38] With the doors locked tight against His kind you know

[00:02:44] Oh come again now Jesus be a carpenter among us

[00:02:50] There are chapels in our discontent cathedrals to our sorrows

[00:02:56] And we dwell in golden mansions with the sand for our foundations

[00:03:02] And the raging water's rising and the thunder's all around us

[00:03:08] Won't You come and build a house on rock again

[00:03:15] Jesus was a carpenter and He worked with a saw and a hammer

[00:03:20] And His hands could form a table true enough to stand forever
