One Of Us lyrics by Joan Osborne
If God had a name,what would it be?
And would you call it to His face
if you were faced with Him
in all his glory?
What would you ask
if you had just one question?
Yeah, yeah, God is great
Yeah, yeah, God is good
Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah
What if God was one of us?
Just a slob like one of us?
Just a stranger on the bus
tryin' to make his way home
If God had a face,
what would it look like?
And would you wanna see
if seeing meant that
you would have to believe
in things like heaven and in Jesus
and the saints and all the prophets?
Oh Yeah, yeah, God is great
Yeah, yeah, God is good
Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah
What if God was one of us?
Just a slob like one of us?
Just a stranger on the bus
tryin' to make his way home
tryin' to make his way home
Back up to heaven all alone
Nobody callin' on the phone
'cept for the Pope, maybe, in Rome
Yeah, yeah, God is great
Yeah, yeah, God is good
Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah yeah
What if God was one of us?
Just a slob like one of us?
Just a stranger on the bus
tryin' to make his way home
just tryin' to make his way home
like a holy rolling stone
Back up to heaven all alone
Just tryin' to make his way home
Nobody callin' on the phone
'cept for the Pope, maybe, in Rome
