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 slum like one of us
Just a stranger on a bus
Tryin' 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 slum like one of us
Just a stranger on a bus
Tryin' to make his way home?
Tryin' to make his way home?

Back up to heaven all alone
Nobody calling 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 slum like one of us
Just a stranger on a bus
Tryin' to make his way home?
Just tryin' to make his way home?
Just like a holy rolling stone

Back up to heaven all alone
Just tryin' to make his way home
Nobody calling on the phone
'Cept for the Pope maybe in Rome
