Something Big Lyrics


Hey, hey, hey, hey, everybody
I got something to say
I met this man named Jesus
And I ain't never been the same
You know my heart's been changed
My mind's been changed, I'm nothing like I was
'Cause I was stuck on stupid
But now I'm filled with love
You know something big done happened to me
(Something big done happened to me)
And I gotta tell the world about it
(I gotta tell the world about it)
'Cause if I keep it to myself
(If I keep it to myself)
How you gon' find out about it?
(How you gon' find out about it?)
Jesus took the worst of me
(Jesus took the worst of me)

And helped me get myself together
(And helped me get myself together)
The greatest man in history
(The greatest man in history)
And can't nobody do it better
(Can't nobody do it better)
Oh, no
If your soul is sinking
And feeling like your lost
Don't know who to turn to
Then let's go to the cross
Jesus bled and Jesus died
And Jesus took the fall
For all your wrong and all my wrong
Jesus pitied all
You know something big done happened to me
(Something big done happened to me)
And I gotta tell the world about it
(I gotta tell the world about it)
'Cause if I keep it to myself
(If I keep it to myself)
How you gon' find out about it?
(How you gon' find out about it?)
Jesus took the worst of me
(Jesus took the worst of me)
And helped me get myself together
(And helped me get myself together)
The greatest man in history
(The greatest man in history)
And can't nobody do it better
(Can't nobody do it better)
Oh, no
Tell me what you know about Jesus
He's alright
Anybody know about Jesus
He's alright
Tell me what you know about Jesus
He's alright
Hey, what ya'll know about Jesus
He's alright
You know something big done happened to me
(Something big done happened to me)
And I gotta tell the world about it
(I gotta tell the world about it)
'Cause if I keep it to myself
(If I keep it to myself)
How you gon' find out about it?
(How you gon' find out about it?)
Jesus took the worst of me
(Jesus took the worst of me)
And helped me get myself together
(And helped me get myself together)
The greatest man in history
(The greatest man in history)
And can't nobody do it better
(Can't nobody do it better)
Now help me say hey, hey, hey
Everybody lift your voice and say
Hey, hey, hey
Put your hands together say
Hey, hey, hey
If God's been good, somebody say
Hey, hey, hey
Come on, put them hands together
Put them hands together
Put them hands together
Put them hands together
Come on, come one, come on, come on

Betty Carter (1929–1998) was a prominent U.S. jazz singer, renowned for her improvisational technique and idiosyncratic vocal style. Carter expanded the role of the vocalist in jazz, to a full, improvising member of the band. Although her voice was not as admired by the public as such vocalists as Sarah Vaughan or Ella Fitzgerald, many consider her to have exercised mastery of the human voice previously unheard in jazz. Carmen McRae once claimed that "there's really only one jazz singer - only one: Betty Carter."
