And would you call it to his face If you were faced with him In all his glory What woukd you ask him If you had just one qeuestuin ? And yeah, yeah, God is great Yeah, yeah, God is good Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah 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 ? 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 prophet ?
