Genesis - Jesus He Knows Me Lyrics






You see the face on the TV screen
coming at you every Sunday
see that face on the billboard
that man is me

On the cover of the magazine
there's no question why I'm smiling
you buy a piece of paradise
you buy a piece of me

I'll get you everything you wanted
I'll get you everything you need
don't need to believe in hereafter
just believe in me

Cos Jesus he knows me
and he knows I'm right
I've been talking to Jesus all my life
oh yes he knows me
and he knows I'm right
and he's been telling me
everything is alright

I believe in the family
with my ever loving wife beside me
but she don't know about my girlfriend
or the man I met last night

Do you believe in God
cos that's what I'm selling
and if you wanna get to heaven
I'll see you right

You won't even have to leave your house
or get outta your chair
you don't even have to touch that dial
cos I'm everywhere

And Jesus he knows me
and he knows I'm right
I've been talking to Jesus all my life
oh yes he knows me
and he knows I'm right
well he's been telling me
everything's gonna be alright

Won't find me practising what I'm preaching
won't find me making no sacrifice
but I can get you a pocketful of miracles
if you promise to be good, try to be nice
God will take good care of you
just do as I say, don't do as I do

I'm counting my blessings,
I've found true happiness
cos I'm getting richer, day by day
you can find me in the phone book,
just call my toll free number
you can do it anyway you want
just do it right away

There'll be no doubt in your mind
you'll believe everything I'm saying
if you wanna get closer to him
get on your knees and start paying

Cos Jesus he knows me
and he knows I'm right
I've been talking to Jesus all my life
oh yes he knows me
and he knows I'm right
well he's been telling me
everything's gonna be alright, alright

Jesus he knows me
Jesus he knows me, you know...

  11. F.... A....

    We want a remaster of this mini-masterpiece

  12. �.... �....

    Miami Vice, season 2) You know.

  13. M.... ....

    In GTA San Andreas that was a great song.

  14. D.... L....

    Who reckons phil collins really knew jesus?!!! Whats it worth to you my friend!! Another cracking song from geresis.lets be honest with a name like that gor s group tey had to make a song like this.

  15. m.... d....

    Es como la fiesta del PRO en la Macrisis argentina

  16. t.... ....

    This song is genious, this is just a F****ng Masterpiece and unfortunately, so few people seemed to get it for the Effing US developped more of those ludicrous preachers just hungry for money, and then different religions thought it was time to do the same and make our world a little bit more rotten in the name of jesus, allah, etc, etc ... Can't you see that religions are just a poor distraction for the masses ???

  17. B.... b....

    Absolutely fantastic song! Phil Collins's voice sounds fantastic!

  18. A.... M....

    My idol since 35 years

  19. M.... B....

    Official video?? My arse! They cut out the scenes with the girlfriend and the hustler! Bloody censorship... murrican probably.

    M.... B....

    Marco Binder the full length video IS on YouTube if you look for it. But it's 5 minutes and 20 seconds long, so some bits had to be edited for it to be TV friendly. There were bits of nudity edited out, in the swimming pool scene, and a few other bits as well in order to reduce it to around three-and-a-half minutes.

  20. s.... p....

    I Genesis sono sempre i miei preferiti ❤️ questo video è simpatico

  21. j.... ....

    ...the tvvinz ^ ^

  22. G.... S....

    Here in Brazil we have Edir Macedo, Silas Malafaia and many other televangelists who do the same way as the ones portrayed in this video. They're the ones who "steal in the name of God".

  23. S.... ....

    I remember listening to this song on the car radio being probably 8 years old with my parents in the front, at night, slowly relaxing on the back seat, looking with one eye at the road ahead, feeling nice and safe , not having to worry about anything. That was such a good time.

  24. A.... ....

    Slayer - Read Between the Lies (Pop-Rock Version)

  25. T.... E....

    This is actually a vevo edited version of the video. here is the original https://youtu.be/EprQGmZ3Imw

  26. f.... ....

    So Phil is now the baby Jesus in a church in Mexico? 🤓

  27. M.... B....

    I wonder if the millenials know all this good music? Instead of the modern crap they listen.

    M.... B....

    According to the internet, the millennials are people born from 1981 till 1996(this surprised me as well, I'd thought it was the generation born after 1999/2000), so most of us would or do know of this band and their music.

    M.... B....

    Yes, here i am

  28. t.... n....

    Genesis guys follow his orders

  29. A.... V....

    I love this song😊💓

  30. A.... O....

    HILARIOUS! A bit like Robbie Williams - Sin Sin Sin

  31. A.... K....

    A może jedno i drugie??

  32. A.... K....

    która z opcji jest poprawna WE fe czy prorork fałszywy?

  33. M.... K....

    Wow, this new Kanye West Jesus movie sure is something...

  34. a.... d....

    for God's sake, Clarkson! Why Genesis?

  35. J.... C....

    Are you guys born again? Have you guys repented of your sins? Are you guys obeying God? You don't get to heaven by being good.

    J.... C....

    @DeoMachina What will money get you. It doesn't make people happy.

    J.... C....

    @Jesus Christ saves from hell study the bible True but I need money to eat and have a place to live

    J.... C....

    @DeoMachina We should be good stewards of our money and not covetous. Covetousness is greed

    J.... C....

    @Jesus Christ saves from hell study the bible Let's cut to the chase: Does Jesus support overthrowing capitalism or not

    J.... C....

    @DeoMachina In terms of money he wants us to help each other. The bible say it's easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.

  36. 2.... ....

    Benny Hinn ?

  37. n.... t....

    Esta canción me suena bien para el comunismo del 2019 y años consiguientes.
    Ah también para el Vaticano satánico.

  38. M.... b....

    Trump's spiritual adviser bought me here.

  39. S.... B....

    Am I the only one thinking that Phil looks a bit like Leonard Hofstadter in this clip ?

  40. m.... ....

    It's 2019 and Paula White has become an official White house employee....

    m.... ....

    This song is more relevant than ever.

  41. a.... ....

    masterpiece !

    monstersince ok boomer

  44. M.... ....

    When I saw the thumbnail I thought Phil was Danny Devito.

  45. L.... M....

    Do you want a lot of music playlists?, Come to my channel!, I have this,that, and a lot more!

  46. D.... ....

    I am 🇧🇪

  47. P.... ....

    Always loved this song back in my youth. Amazing prime time preachers satire.

  48. N.... B....

    Tökéletes!

  49. l.... ....

    Leonard Hofstadter from Big Bang Theory 😂

  50. �.... ....

    TOUCH THE SCREEN

  51. P.... ....

    I think the guy playing the organ at 1:02 looks a lot like Rob Brydon.

  52. F.... ....

    Mormon Cult in a nutshell!

  53. L.... 2....

    Come out of religion people and come to Jesus. Embrace the love of God, not the corruption of men. Buy a KJV Bible. Your life will change. Anyone who is depressed or feel their life isn't going on track, Jesus with bless your life if you seek him

  54. C.... P....

    this has been a favourite of mine for years and I am 38

  55. X.... ....

    That Joe Pesci can sing

  56. X.... U....

    Excellent actor

  57. W.... M....

    GOD BLESS THIS WORLD

  58. M.... B....

    Holy shit what a song!!!

  59. r.... ....

    Back off

  60. J.... S....

    1992 was a great time

  61. I.... A....

    Do as I say, don't do as I do: sums up organised religion perfectly.

    I.... A....

    That's exactly why Jesus is a relationship not a religion

    I.... A....

    Except for the fanatic people who actually believe the garbage they're preaching.

  62. n.... n....

    That ironic protestant pastor grab the money by wrist to has sweet life at the expense with the faithfull in rent the golden calf or lump of gold or golden ox in NYC nice one

  63. D.... H....

    All ya heathens liking this here mossic, Jesus is a coming back & will strike ya all down! Don't say I no warne ya now. Learn your selfs summin from the bible b4 its to late!






    Love from an atheist in *Essex UK!*

  64. c.... ....

    Pity that the Democrats didnt got this kind of video against Trump's fanatics and bigots...

  65. H.... ....

    it was pure criticism against TV preachers money-makers and tricksters.

    H.... ....

    And hopefully religion....

  66. N.... O....

    2.7K got the irony.

  67. T.... J....

    Ghost needs to make a cover of this

  68. j.... ....

    The song has a bit deeper context. Remeber than Collins & Genesis are English guys, so it's probably more about protestant vision of Christianity, where basically you're not responsible for your actions - one way or another you'll go to heaven ('just believe in me' is here enough).

    j.... ....

    Actually it was a reaction to all the American TV evangelists they saw when touring the states

  69. f.... b....

    Phil Collins IS Jesus

    f.... b....

    Jesus Christ is God Phil Collins is NOT Him. He is a mere mortal man who shall one day soon bow down to Him and say "Jesus Christ is Lord!" We ALL shall !!

  70. S.... S....

    Phil, Proper Peckham South london, malcom,
    Tony Back in the day. OI! Proper...

  71. I.... O....

    Love this.

  72. L.... 2....

    JESUS IS COMING SOON!

    L.... 2....

    for your money!

    L.... 2....

    @Niels Ohlsen lol, it's just the church that wants that! haha

    L.... 2....

    Mate he's not even breathing hard yet!

    L.... 2....

    @Niels Ohlsen

    Great comment!

  73. P.... S....

    Can we change this to climate change politician's

  74. D.... ....

    This is the censored one. Love the original video!

  75. s.... ....

    As an atheist this has been an anthem for me for many years.. Love it!

    s.... ....

    Your missing out in the love man. Come to Jesus

    s.... ....

    Larry 25 I’m capable of love and other four letter words without fiction :)

    s.... ....

    @silverwater006 I understand and I don't want to force you in anything you dont wanna do but Jesus is not fiction. It is historical. Anyways peace man and blessings ❤️

    s.... ....

    @Larry 25

    Not according to the Romans or Jews who make np reference to him as being the son of god. If you can get this video you can get you are being hoodwinked, just upscale that to 2000 years ago!

    s.... ....

    @Deep Heat I understand the meaning of the song and I actually agree with it. Yea your right the church is a front for money and corruption . Jesus does not reside there. In fact when Jesus returns he will be destroying all the churches of men. If you want to find him, look within. Jesus himself said "the kingdom of Heaven is within" If you seek Jesus, you will find him. Just don't look in the church! You never will in there lol 😂

  76. J.... A....

    That man ore band knows rythme. Its really swining

  77. W.... r....

    ♥♥♥

  78. J.... m....

    En busca de las soluciones del medioevo ! Retrasaron la medicina no se podían hacer autopsias para poder curar enfermedades.entre tantas otras cosas en nombre de este personaje

  79. M.... I....

    Me encanta ésta canción 😍😍 de Phil Collins

  80. T.... J....

    Someone else is missing the Moustache on the "Hawai-Shirt" 2:36 Scene? :P

  81. D.... H....

    Even though *Collins* had got the band to bend over & present their collective comercial arses to mainstream *America* for the *$* immediately forgetting about the *TRULY* amazing & beautiful work they had done in the UK prior to that.... in the context of the shit we have at the moment.... this is a *GOOD* song!

  82. L.... T....

    Bei diesem leid kann ich mich nicht mal über die schlechte audible Werbung aufregen

  83. m.... ....

    Pathetic

  84. g.... d....

    I want Peter Gabriel and Phil Colins duet!!!

  85. L.... H....

    Adnan Oktar, the turkish tele-evangelist doesn't like this song

  86. F.... A....

    cut and censored :(

  87. M.... G....

    Comment se faire de l’argent avec la religion.telle est la question?

  88. L.... A....

    Wow,I love this song and I am not a christian

    L.... A....

    why would being christian make you like the song more? its clearly making fun of TV evangelists

  89. I.... ....
