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
