Jesus Is Just Alright, although originally written by Arthur Reid Reynolds (apparently) was originally recorded by the Byrds for their 1969 album Ballad of Easy Rider, but did not prove to be a big hit. It was also rerecorded in 1970 by Underground Sunshine, and again failed to get notice. It wasn't until it was again released by the Doobie Brothers on their 1972 album Toulouse Street that the song got any notice. I prefer the Doobie Brothers version, but they Byrds is just as rocking and well worth the listen. Also, for any tv buffs,this song is covered on the short lived Freaks and Geeks, jammed out on a piano at the party, which is a pretty awesome rendition and definitely worth checking out.

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
