One Of Us Lyrics - Singles - Joan Osbourne

So one of these nights and about twelve o'clock 

This old world's going to reel and rock 

Saints will tremble and cry for pain 

For the Lord'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? 

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? 

(Just?) tryin' to make His way home 

Back up to Heaven all alone 

Nobody callin' on the phone 

'Cept 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 the bus 

Trying to make His way home? 

Just tryin' to make His way home 

Like a holy rolling stone 

Back up to Heaven all alone 

Just tryin' to make His way home 

Nobody callin' on the phone 

'Cept for the Pope, maybe, in Rome
