Drive Another Nail |
Sam was a carpenter 50 years |
He pounded out blood, sweat and tears |
One day he hung his hammer up |
He wanted to do the things he loved |
What once was sunday fishin' now was 7 days a week |
He told his wife to find me, i’ll be down at the creek |
I don’t want to drive another nail |
I’ve worked hard to do my job and I did it well |
I’ve got the scars on these two hands to show I haven’t failed |
But I don’t' want to drive another nail |
Now she was a woman full of faith and old sam was full of pride |
And she knew he had one more job to do before he died |
Easter sunday rolled around |
In a country church for the lost and found |
Oh, sam was there against his will |
As the preacher spoke on calvary’s hill |
Of how they took the master and they nailed him to a tree |
You could hear old sam a cryin' as he fell down on his knees |
I don’t wanna drive another nail |
I want to live my life for you |
I want to do it well |
You’ve got the scars on your two hands |
That show where I have failed |
Lord, I don’t want to drive another nail |
