Verse 1
One day they nailed a carpenter to a rugged tree
Thinking He would never build again
There they held Him through His hands and feet
Still He carried out a master plan
Chorus
Jesus built a bridge to heaven
So that I could have a way up to Him
Jesus built a bridge the only way He could
With only three nails and two pieces of wood
With one rugged cross, Jesus built a bridge
Verse 2
The Father looked from heaven to the world below
And it seemed there was no way to claim His own
So to the world God's Son, the master builder, had to go
To make a way to bring God's children home
Chorus
Jesus built a bridge to heaven
So that I could have a way up to Him
Jesus built a bridge the only way He could
With only three nails and three pieces of wood
With one rugged cross, Jesus built a bridge
Tag
With only three nails and two pieces of wood
With one rugged cross, Jesus built a bridge
