Driving Nails

DRIVING NAILS (Bruce Carroll) D G D Since that blessed night in a manger, she watched her baby grow. Em A It seems like yesterday He was in her arms, where did the time go? D G D He learned His Father's trade, as she marveled at it all. Em A7 D The sweat dropped from her little carpenter, as He made the timbers fall. Bm G D Bm G Em A7 She can hear the driving nails, upon the hillside... And she prays that His spirit will not fail. Bm G D G Bm A7 D She watches as a young man, undertakes His Fathers will... As she stands and listens, to the driving nails. D G D In the streets of Jerusalem, a child can disappear. Em A She was frantic as she looked for Him, until she began to hear... D G D The hammers up at the temple, she called Him as she ran. Em A7 Surprised she found Him teaching, like no or-din-ary man. Bm G D Bm G Em A7 She can hear the driving nails, upon the hillside... And she prays that His spirit will not fail. Bm G D G Bm A7 D She watches as a young man, undertakes His Fathers will... As she stands and listens, to the driving nails. D G D Darkness covered all the land, in the middle of the day. Em A7 She began to tremble, as the earth began to quake. D G7 D Hammers, nails and timbers, of the carpenters trade... Em D Made the sound that pierced her soul, as the cross was being raised. Bm G D Bm G Em A7 She can hear the driving nails, upon the hillside... And she prays that His spirit will not fail. Bm G D G Bm A7 D She watches as a young man, undertakes His Fathers will... As she stands and listens, to the driving nails. Bm D And she cries and listens, to the driving nails.
