James, the Savior's your brother, but you can't see well
There's a time to come when you're finally led to believe, baby
James, today you're ashamed, though
‘Cause all He said kind of feels strange
Makes you believe that He just might be insane
Oh, James!
James, today when you came to level with Him, well
He sent you away, so you'll have to bear and grin, baby
Wise men traveled for miles (traveled for miles)
And brought Him gold at His childhood house
Don't you remember those folks Mama told you about?
Were all those times He cleansed the lepers — hey, hey
Only because they didn't know better?
I wanna know
James, He's gainin' acclaim
The blind and the lame
Praising His name
Hmm!
LEAD
(James, James, James)
Oh, James, I'll say it again, but pride it goes deep
James, you're playin' it dumb, but I pray you'll see -- yes, I do!
(James, James, James)
That's just plain honesty, yeah
(James, James, James)
It's so plain to me
(James, James, James)
Jamie, Jamie, Jamie, Jamie, James
(James, James, James)
Are you willing to see, see, see?
(James, James, James)
(James, James, James)
(James, James, James)
John 7:5
For even his own brothers did not believe in him.
