In The Carpenter's Shop lyrics

by

Sara Teasdale


MARY sat in the corner dreaming,
    Dim was the room and low,
While in the dusk, the saw went screaming
            To and fro.

Jesus and Joseph toiled together,
     Mary was watching them,
Thinking of kings in the wintry weather
             At Bethlehem.

Mary sat in the corner thinking,
     Jesus had grown a man;
One by one her hopes were sinking
             As the years ran.

Jesus and Joseph toiled together,
    Mary's thoughts were far—
Angels sang in the wintry weather
             Under a star.

Mary sat in the corner weeping,
     Bitter and hot her tears—
Little faith were the angels keeping
             All the years.
