    CHURCH FOR SALE © Words and Music: Ben Krahne/ Donna Aylor He was born in a small town raised on the gospel truth Took a job in the city where his faith soon lost its roots So he packed up his lost soul and drove back home today Found himself at this old church where he'd been saved But what he saw was a sign on the broken door… CHORUS CHURCH FOR SALE IT MAY SEEM WEATHERED BEYOND REPAIR BEEN AWHILE SINCE IT HEARD A PRAYER NEEDS LOVE, HAMMER AND NAILS AND A FRESH COAT OF FAITH CHURCH FOR SALE Echoes of Sunday sermons bring back sweet memories As the cracked stain glass reflects a broken man on his knees It’s hard now to remember why he ever ran away But chance or fate lead him to this forgotten place Jesus swung a hammer maybe he could too REPEAT CHORUS BRIDGE Now on a sunlit sacred day there’s praises from ev’ry pew And a Carpenter singing “Amazing Grace” Who was raised on the gospel truth REPEAT CHORUS Optional Tag: I was born in this small town raised on the gospel truth
