One Of Us - 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?

And 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, trying to make his way home?

If God had a face, what would it look like?

And would you want to see

If seeing meant that you would have to believe

In things like heaven and in Jesus and the saints

And all the prophets?

And 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, trying to make his way home?

Just trying to make his way home

Back up to heaven all alone

Nobody calling 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, trying to make his way home

Just trying to make his way home, just like a holy rolling stone?

Back up to heaven all alone, just trying to make his way home

Nobody calling on the phone

'Cept for the Pope, maybe in Rome
