The Big Brothers Gospel Lyrics

In a small town, the first one was born

A humble house, a crownless thorn

Later came brothers, wild and free

Didn't believe in what they couldn't see

Big brother spoke of love and light

Turned water to wine in the middle of the night

But his kin just laughed, said he was mad

They couldn't see the gift he had

Oh, they didn't know the truth

Didn't see the divine in their youth

Miracles and wonders before their eyes

But they just saw a brother in disguise

One fateful day, they watched him fall

Nailed to a cross, they heard the call

Mocking words from the crowning's thorn

Still they couldn't see why he was born

Goodbye was hard, as he left for heaven

Their hearts ached with what was given

Finally, the truth began to gleam

Big brother wasn't just a dream

Oh, now they believe the truth

Seeing divine in their lost youth

Miracles and wonders now understood

As they remember brother being good

How could they, be wrong about their brother

Learned in Nazareth, not listening to their mother

A prophet, Messiah in their house, they doubt

Finally when he spoke, then they chased him out

How could they, be wrong about their brother

Learned in Nazareth, not listening to their mother

Finally when he spoke, then they chased him out

A prophet, Messiah in their house, they doubt

Now they got things right, amongst the brothers

Finally standing up, changing the way they taught

Staying in Jerusalem, having trouble with the others

Messiah was their message, now they where, to be caught

Big Brother had a gospel

They came to pentecostal

Mary was their mother

Jesus was their brother

Jesus

Jesus

Jesus
