[Eb]
Up on the [Ab] floor of a humble [Eb] carpenter's [Ab] shop,
[Bb]
A boy grew among the wood [Eb] chips and till,
Learning his [Ab] father's trade [Eb] to build out of [Ab] wood,
[Bb]
Working each day by [Eb] the road.
Is not [Ab] a carpenter [Eb] made of [Ab] wood?
Is not [Bb] a sailor made [Eb] of [Bb]
water?
[Eb] [Ab]
Is the best you've [Bb] done always [Eb] the best you [Ab] could?
[Eb]
Is not [Ab] a son made of [Eb] his father?
Along [Ab] the shore this boy [Eb] ran till he [Ab] walked a man,
[Bb]
And he talked to the sailors [Eb] by the sea.
This man [Ab] calmed the water with [Eb] a wave of [Ab] his hand,
[Bb]
And he walked to the sailors upon the [Eb]
sea.
Is not a [Ab] carpenter [Eb]
made of wood?
[Ab]
Is [Bb] not a sailor [Fm] [Eb] made of water?
[Ab]
Is the best [Bb] you've done [Eb] always the best you [Ab] could?

Is [Ab] not a son made of his
[Eb] father?

This man [Ab] suffered pain and [Eb] ridicule for using [Ab] his power,
[Bb] But he continued no matter [Eb] the call.
Forsaken by the [Ab] people he begged [Eb]
forgiveness [Ab] in full,
[Bb] And he cried to his father from the [Eb] cross.
