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 a 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
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 a bus
Trying to make his way home
Trying to make his way home
Back up to heaven all alone.
Nobody calling on the phone
Accept 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 a bus
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
Accept for the pope
Maybe in rome.
