john ylvisaker - the truth comes out lyrics

[verse 1]
jesus did many things so the blind could see and the deaf could hear
all the people would follow him, they thought he must be the seraphim
but the pharisees and scribes observed that jesus wasn’t inclined to swerve
eating with—talking to—the meanest sinner in two (it’s true)

[chorus 1]
so they said, “that’s a thing we don’t like about jesus, that’s a thing we don’t like about jesus
can’t you see we won’t agree because that’s the thing we don’t like about jesus”

[verse 2]
a woman came up to speak to mе she said she was very disturbеd
you see she was bothered by the communion wine she thought that grape juice would be just fine
well i tried to say to this nice woman what jesus and the disciples had done
how they took the cup in the upper room with bread and wine they did their communion

[chorus 2]
so she said, “that’s a thing i don’t like about jesus, that’s a thing i don’t like about jesus
pardon me, i won’t agree because that’s the thing i don’t like about jesus”

[verse 3]
most folks try to avoid the poor and will not read about christ the lord
see how most of his life was spent with low class people without a cent
those who are well do not need a doctor or rather those who’ve lost their health
or maybe jesus was trying to say that most people act in the opposite way
[chorus 3]
when they say, “that’s a thing we don’t like about jesus, that’s a thing we don’t like about jesus
can’t you see we won’t agree because that’s the thing we don’t like about jesus”

[verse 4]
one man asked me if i could say why these colored people should have their way
and force this issue of equal rights when everyone knows they’re not the same
once again i referred to scripture showed this man such a vivid picture
how jesus treated all men the same and prayed for them in his father’s name

[chorus 4]
so he said “that’s a thing i don’t like about jesus, that’s a thing i don’t like about jesus
pardon me, but i won’t agree, that’s a thing i don’t like about jesus”

[verse 5]
ah, but maybe i’m as guilty as all the rest when it comes right down to the final test
what do i think of this one called christ? i know it’s easy to be enticed
into making of him what i’d like to find rather than he who left all behind
to take the form of a man like me and lead to death hanging from a tree

[chorus 5]
is that the thing i don’t like about jesus, is that’s the thing i don’t like about jesus?
will i be d+mned for eternity because that’s the thing i didn’t like about jesus?
