One Of Us - Joan Osborne
Oh, one of these days
at about twelve o'clock
This whole earth's gonna reel and rock
Things they'll tremble and cry for pain
For the lords's gonna come
in his heavenly airplane
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
Back up to heaven all alone
Nobody calling on the phone
Except for the Pope maybe in Rome.
