One Of Us

Joan Osborne



ONE OF US


one of these nights at about 12：00
this old bird's gonna reel and rock.
fifth for travel and pint 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 IT
IN ALL HIS GLORY.
WHAT WOULD YOU ASKHIM
IF YOU HAD ONE JUST 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 STRANGERON A BUS
TRYING TO MAKE HIS WAY HOME?



IF GOD HAD A FACE,WHAT WOULD IT LOOK LIKE?
AND WOULD YOU WANNA SEE
IF SEEING MEANT THAT YOU WOULD HAVE TO BELIEVE
IN HEAVEN AND IN JESUS AND THE SAINTS
AND ALL THE PROPHETS?

REPEAT **

BACK UP TO THE HEAVEN ALL ALONG,
NOBODY CALLING ON THE PHONE
LIKE A HOLY ROLLING STONE,
EXCEPT FOR THE POPE MAYBE IN ROME?

To love and to be loved are both blessedness .
When you're in love , remember to show more
generosity to each other .
