Lyrics

Jesus of nazareth
What do you think of us
When all we do is think of us?
Jesus you were neither black nor white
The son of an israelite
How did you get so westernised?

Turn the water into wine
I tell the world you're a friend of mine
Then I want justice for them but grace for me
How can it be that you love me?

Jesus if the 21st century
Was when you came down to set us free
Would you build yourself a sanctuary?
Jesus of nazareth
Would you have your own tv network
And call it sermon on the satellite?

Heal the sick and give sight to blind
Outside your church but also deep inside
My self-righteousness is your enemy
How can it be that you love me?

Jesus no-one said things like you
And if what you said and did were true
I would have to give my life to you

Raise the dead and tear the curtain down
Breathe your life but let religion drown
Set the captives free and start with me
I do believe that you love me
