Joseph was a carpenter,
He lived in Nazareth.
He was such a good and honest man
In a dream an angel came,
Told of the special day,
Mary his betrothed would bear a babe.
Jesus Christ, born to man!
Joseph had a special place in God's great plan.
Joseph cast his doubt aside
To raise this holy child.
Mary soon his blessed bride would be.
Said the angel in a dream
'Jesus the chosen King,
He will reign supreme eternally.'
Jesus Christ, born to man!
Joseph had a special place in God's great plan.
Jesus Christ, born to man!
Joseph had a special place in God's great plan.
In a while it came to pass,
The law from Rome at last
Counting all the subjects for their share.
By decree from mighty Rome,
People returning home
Crowded into lodgings ev'rywhere!
Jesus Christ, born to man! Ooh ooh!
Joseph was a carpenter,
He lived in Nazareth.
He was such a good and honest man.
Joseph was a carpenter,
He came from Bethlehem...
A very special place in God's - Great - Plan!
