Lyrics - Driving Nails by Carroll Bruce

Since that blessed night in a manger, she watched her baby grow,
It seems
Like yesterday
He was in her arms, where did the time go?,
He learned
His
Fathers trade, as she marveled at
It all,
The sweat dropped from her
Little
Carpenter as
He made the timbers fall,(
Chorus)
She can hear the driving nails upon the
Hillside,and she prays that
His spirit will not fail,she watches as a young man undertakes
His
Fathers
Will,as she stands and listens to the driving nails
In the streets of
Jerusalem a child can disappear ,
She was frantic as
She looked for
Him,
Until
She began to hear, the hammers up at the temple, she called
Him as she ran,surprised she found
Him teaching like no ordinary man(
Chorus)
Darkness covered all the land in the middle of the day,she began to tremble as the earth began to quake,
Hammers,
Nails &
Timbers of
The
Carpenters
Trade,made the sound that pierced her soul as the
Cross was being raised(
Chorus)
And
She cries and
Listens
To the
Driving
Nails
