Lyrics
If God Was One Of Us
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
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
CHORUS:
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
CHORUS:
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
Except for the Pope maybe in Rome
And yeah yeah God is great
Yeah yeah God is good
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
CHORUS:
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
Except for the Pope maybe in Rome
