[00:04.68][Verse]
[00:17.01]There was an old stone-cutter who lived in a cabin on the mountain side
[00:22.38]And the old stone-cutter knew it won't be long before he died
[00:27.42]And all around his cabin were statues the man had made
[00:31.65]Statues that the buyers said were all of a mediocre grade
[00:37.05]With his calloused hands he lit a lamp and laid down his head on his handmade table
[00:42.69]And he softly whispered Lord I'm old and shaky and I'm hardly able
[00:48.54]But give me strenght and wisdom and give me a week at least
[00:53.46]And I'll climb up to the top of this mountain and chisel out a masterpiece
[00:59.49]The very next morning he felt new strenght
[01:02.07]And he took his brand new hammer and the sharpest chisel
[01:05.55]He began to climb the mountain his old feet slipping in the freezing dizzle
[01:10.05]When he finally reached the top he shouted to a world that didn't hear
[01:16.53]I'll carve my masterpiece out of this marble boulder here
[01:21.42]So the hammer beat the chisel and he hammered until an image grew
[01:26.91]Then he stopped to look it over to appraise his work when he was through
[01:31.95]It was a boy carrying a crippled boy and the old man said it isn't my masterpiece
[01:38.73]I'll call it charity and then a masterpiece of mine will be
[01:44.01]So the hammer beat the chisel until another image in a marbel grew
[01:48.90]Then the wind began to blowing and he sat and rested when he was through
[01:54.36]It was the image of a mother holding her child
[01:58.20]He said this is love as the world would know
[02:00.99]But it isn't my masterpiece and he began again as it began to snow
[02:08.49]The hammer beat the chisel as the snow fell harder and the wind grew and grew
[02:13.92]He fell to his knees holding a stone and he threw down his hammer and his chisel too
[02:20.34]He lay frozen face down in the snow but one hand was held for the world to see
[02:26.55]Cut in the marble was his masterpice three neatly carved letters GOD
