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
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
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
