Lyrics:
I told Jesus be alright if you change my name
I told Jesus be alright if you changed, changed my name
I told Jesus be alright be alright be alright
I told Jesus be alright if you change my name
If you change my name
Then he told me, he said the world will turn away from you child
If I change your name
Yes he told me, said the world will turn away from you child,
If I change your name
I told Jesus be alright be alright be alright
I told Jesus be alright if you change my name
Then he told me, he said your father won't know you child,
If I change your name
Yes he told me, said your mother won't know you child,
Child if I change your name
But I told Jesus, I said it would be alright, be alright, be alright
If my father turns away now, and my mother turn away now
Yes my brother, my baby sister, turn away, turn away
I told Jesus be alright, if you change my name, change my name, change my name
If he'd change my name
