  • Performed by the Doobie Brothers in HD with stunning sound quality.
    This is a gospel song written by Arthur Reynolds and first recorded by Reynold's own group, The Art Reynolds Singers, on their 1966 album, "Tellin' It Like It Is." The song's title makes use of the American slang term "all-right", which during the 1960s was used to describe something that was considered cool or very good.
    The song was later recorded by The Doobie Brothers, who included it on their 1972 album, Toulouse Street, which - together with "Listen to the Music" - brought the band their breakthrough success.
    The Doobie Brothers' version of "Jesus Is Just Alright" was one of a number of religiously themed songs to reach the U.S. charts during 1972 and 1973, along with "Morning Has Broken" by Cat Stevens, "Jubilation" by Paul Anka, "Speak to the Sky" by Rick Springfield, "Jesus Was a Capricorn" by Kris Kristofferson, and "I Knew Jesus (Before He Was a Star)" by Glen Campbell. Lyrics follow:
    Jesus is just alright with me, Jesus is just alright, oh yeah
    Jesus is just alright with me, Jesus is just alright.
    I don't care what they may say, I don't care what they may do
    I don't care what they may say, Jesus is just alright, oh yeah
    Jesus is just alright.
    Jesus is just alright with me, Jesus is just alright, oh yeah
    Jesus is just alright with me, Jesus is just alright.
    I don't care what they may know, I don't care where they may go
    I don't care what they may know, Jesus is just alright, oh yeah.
    Jesus, He's my friend, Jesus, He's my friend
    He took me by the hand, led me far from this land
    Jesus, He's my friend.
    Jesus is just alright with me, Jesus is just alright, oh yeah
    Jesus is just alright with me, Jesus is just alright.
    I don't care what they may say, I don't care what they may do
    I don't care what they may say, Jesus is just alright, oh yeah.

      Saw them in 1972 and I was trying to remember which band The Doobies opened for. It must have been or most likely was Awesome Chicago! I was a young teen and it only $5 to see enjoy such talent!!
      Jesus saved me in 1972 also, so I quit going to rock concerts mainly because of the drugs. I had also seen The Led, Grand Funk, 3 Dogs in '72, Someone threw a 3D type golden cross onstage & Danny Hutton caught it & put it right on around his neck with a thumbs up!

    Saw the concert on HDNet this month. You can catch it on DTV. Great show! This is my era, I grew up with these guys and what made bands like the DB and other 70s bands great was that the musicianship was outstanding, you had more than one guitar player, you had more than one singer, you had more than one songwriter. Everyone shared the spotlight and REALLY enjoyed performing. I hope rock-n-roll as I know it has a revival in my lifetime!

    Something I appreciate about this song is that it can be taken two ways. As a Christian, I'd say "Jesus is just alright!", but an atheist or an agnostic could look at the same song and say "Jesus is /just/ alright." Either way, Doobie Brothers really spiced up this old gospel song, and I love it. Toulouse Street is one my favorite albums!

      I think that what you point out in your post is essential. I consider myself a Christian, but what if i don't consider your point of view as having any merit? There has to be mutual respect first. Jesus, being both the pivotal person in my personal faith, but also an ambiguous, neutral person to the investigator opens the door to a dialogue.

    • @mariaashot5648

      Agreed! After all, folks, how would Jesus Himself take this song? He'd probably say, "They have used their talent well."

    If more churches started their services with this song, with the congregation singing, dancing, laughing, and praising Jesus, then keep that simple message - Jesus, He's my friend - going the rest of the service, they would save lots more souls. sc

    Those of us that came of age during the late 1960s to mid-'70s era can't help but look back and snicker a little when we listen to songs like this one because of how much music bashing was done by our parents and ministers back then. All rock was declared as "Being from the devil himself" and how it would "lead to the destruction of all morality."
    Yet, music like this and Stairway to Heaven, Spirit in the Sky, Put Your Hand in the Hand, My Sweet Lord, and of course...Jesus Christ Superstar...among so many others, had more deep spirituality in them that actually reached young people than the "good old-time gospel" most of us grew up with attending our fundy churches. I was (and still am) deeply moved by Amazing Grace, Just As I Am, How Great Thou Art, and others, but once I got into my GTO out in the church parking lot after services I usually popped an eight-track in and had "Jesus Rock" blasting as I pulled out past the gaggle of "little old church ladies" that were shaking their heads and wagging their fingers at me and other teenagers doing the same thing. We understood the message of those songs. The older people chose not to nor realize those musical pieces were solidifying our faith, not. destroying it.
    In my not so humble opinion, that was just another one of those things that God used to reach His children and was a perfect explanation for His words of "Lean not on your own understanding for your ways are not My ways."

    A long time ago my brother Danny, a great carpenter, told me that his best friend is also a carpenter! I found out what he meant- Jesus the Christ, the Word of the Living God, the voice that said "Let there be Light!", and the One who gave His life that I might be with Him in Eternity. "There is a Friend that sticks closer than a brother". One of His names is, after all, Wonderful.
