We got into the car with the true believers We could tell they were by the words they spoke They were talking of Jesus and all He was doing They were sharing their favourites from the Holy Book And I was with them every step of the way 'Cause I'm a believer saved by grace And they didn't know in the back seat was my brother Jack
We travelled on the 2 hour journey Singing along to gospel radio The my brother Jack quite unexpected said "Do you mind if I listen to my favourite band?" And maybe it was when the singer let out a word Four syllables long and not ever heard In their church circles That the believers attacked
How could you play music that evil? How could you speak of someone's mother like that? Whatever is pure, whatever is holy We think on these things so here's your record back! And maybe it was just 'cause we arrived at the place My fellow believers didn't see his face But red was the anger all over my brother Jack
Well I pulled them aside just before our performance And told them the story of my brother Jack He's not a believer but one who is searching And I told him that Jesus loves him where he's at And when I was speaking Well suddenly I wondered If we really knew why Millions of people felt like my brother Jack They've come to our churches and they're not coming back Please God save our souls And my sweet brother Jack
