Joan Osborne - One Of Us lyrics

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

He's trying to make his way home

back up to heaven all alone

Nobody calling on the phone

'cept for the Pope maybe in Rome

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

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
