If Jesus Christ
Had been a black man
Would they be indifferent
To the color of his purple skin?
If Jesus Christ
Had been a black man
Had been a black man

Um homem de cor
A mesma mensagem de fé e de amor
Teria o santo o mesmo andor?
E apesar da negra cor
Você teria o mesmo amor?
I don't know
I don't know
I don't know

If Jesus Christ
Had been a black man
Would they be indifferent
To the color of his purple skin?
If Jesus Christ
Had been a black man
Had been a black man

A mesma paixão
A mesma nobreza no gesto da mão
O mesmo brother
Um negro irmão
Se ele fosse esse negão
Você lhe beijaria a mão?
I don't know
I don't know
I don't know

If Jesus Christ
Had been a black man
Would they be indifferent
To the color of his purple skin?
If Jesus Christ
Had been a black man
Had been a black man

Um negro legal
Palavras e gestos de amor sem igual
Discriminado, anjo marginal
E essa toda devoção
Seria exatamente igual?
I don't know
I don't know
I don't know

If Jesus Christ
Had been a black man
Would they be indifferent
To the color of his purple skin?
If Jesus Christ
Had been a black man
Had been a black man

If Jesus Christ
Had been a black man
Would they be indifferent
To the color of his purple skin?
If Jesus Christ
Had been a black man
Had been a black man

If Jesus Christ
Had been a black man
Would they be indifferent
To the color of his purple skin?
If Jesus Christ
Had been a black man
Had been a black man

If Jesus Christ
Had been a black man
Would they be indifferent
To the color of his purple skin?
If Jesus Christ
Had been a black man
Had been a black man

If Jesus Christ
Had been a black man
Would they be indifferent
To the color of his purple skin?
If Jesus Christ
Had been a black man
Had been, had been, had been
Had been a black man
