Joan Osborne - One of Us

I do not have any copyright for this song

Lyrics:

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
He's trying to make his way home
Back up to heaven all alone
Nobody calling on the phone
Except for the pope maybe in rome

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 trying to make his way home
Like a holy rolling stone
Back up to heaven all alone
Just trying to make his way home
Nobody calling on the phone
Except for the pope maybe in rome

@jinx666pup You Know, I wonder why capital letters make people so uncomfortable? What if someone lost their glasses, and just said, Hey, I can see.

[Ganzel12345]

finaly i've found this song. this one is something like memory from my childhood. i used to listen it in 1996 or 1997. i like thi song so much. XD

[jinx666pup]

@2ndComingOfALEXANDER Glasses aside, I guess capitals make people uncomfortable because they're used to give a person the impression that something is loud or someone is shouting, chillax with the capitals, preach it quietly, don't force it upon others and intimidate them, christian love x

@sTapleEVA You still didn't showed me proof and evidence that you have a mind.. so as i told you before , why should i waste my words on someone who doesn't have a mind?

Also your replies amuse me everytime i read them :)) doesn't america aproves bills that says "In God We Trust" .. funny person you are :)) and as much as you try to prove rational thinking you just can prove you have a mind =)) .. good luck with that im tired of writing to an empty head.

@Nycku007 to reply 12: this reply really pissed me off, lol. I am not lucky to be in christian lands, I am lucky to be in FREE lands, brought on by RATIONAL THINKING. christianity is not the reason i am free. Years of people fighting for my rights(not just the army) and people who used rational thinking to build a government are the reason i am free. america is not a christian nation, it is a free nation. if america was only christian, and based off of only christian laws. I would not be free.

@Nycku007 to reply 10 and 11: by favoring christianity, you are believing it is the best religion, why else choose it? And it is compleate denial for you to believe chistianity is diffrent from those other religions that preach women are not equal. Christianity and it's branches are the SPEARTIP for these religions. if it were not for rational thinking, and womens fight for equality, these "free" christian countries would not be equal as they are today. the same rule applies to minorities.

@Nycku007 8: again with this"interpretation"being wrong. can you prove it was wrong? Based on the bible itself,i have deturmined their interpretations were dead on. There are passeges in the bible/torah, and quran,all reffering to women, gays, slaves, ect. as not equal.How can anyone have the"wrong" interpretation of this? they are just reading the words,and following exactly what the words tell them to do/believe. those acts of genocide were not what created a better world.rational thinking was

@Nycku007 to reply 7: the key word is "hope", hope is desperatly having faith that something will be true or happen. I have no need for this "hope", i will try to achieve this with my own actions, and if i don't, it is my own failure, i take full responsability, not god, ME. no one is in a position to deturmine the purpose for everyone on earth, only themselves. your statement was very close minded.

[sTapleEVA]

@Nycku007 to reply 6: actualy, rats do kill eachother, they even eat eachother, we are far better as people then them as rats. just because we kill eachother does not make them better. An intelligent person has an open mind for learning, because you need to have an open mind. that does not mean they are stupid. Christians/people of organized religion on the other hand have closed minds. everything is already figured out for them, they, based off faith in a book alone, are set until they die.

@Nycku007 reply 4 and 5:your grandma is not the bible, is she? this is not about her morals, this is about the bibles morals. and what is with the star trek refrences? What is your proof that christianity is what changed the world to the better? Billions of people have died or had their lives severely shortened because of the boxed in lifestyle it causes, or because people could manipulate them with it for thousands of years. Also as a christian, you can not say you believe in science as a whole
