If God had a name, what would it be?
And would you turn into his face
If you were faced with him in all his glory?
What would you ask if you had just one qustion?

Yeah, yeah, God is great
Yeah, yeah, God is good
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 it there
If seeing meant that you would have to believe
In things like heaven and in Jesus
The saints and all of 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
Just trying to make his way home
Back up to heaven all alone
No one calling on the mobile phone
’Cept for the Pope maybe in Rome?
Yeah, yeah

Hey, yeah. Oh, oh
Oh, yeah, if God is great
Yeah, yeah, if God is good
Yeah, yeah — yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, what if God was one of us [yeah]
Just a slob like one of us [yeah]
Just a stranger on the bus
Trying to make his way home? [one more]

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
Back up to heaven all alone
Just like the holy Roling Stone
No one calling on the mobile phone
’Cept for the Pope maybe in Rome?

What if God was one of us?
