I heard this song on the radio a few days ago on my drive home and thought this is a song I must get! I don’t have any religion, but that doesn’t mean that I’m not spiritual. I’m what people call agnostic<\/a>. The song for some reason started a very deep thought as I imagined meeting God on the bus and he turns out just to be someone like us and all he’s doing is trying to find his way home (or my interpretation of finding our way through this world and this life). The song also has a nice tune. I immediately got the song from iTunes when I got home. You can also get the song from Amazon.com<\/a>. You can preview the song here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Here are the lyrics: (taken from Any Song Lyrics<\/a>)<\/p>\n

If God had a name, what would it be
\nAnd would you call it to his face
\nIf you were faced with him in all his glory
\nWhat would you ask if you had just one question<\/p>\n

And yeah yeah God is great yeah yeah God is good
\nyeah yeah yeah yeah yeah<\/p>\n

What if God was one of us
\nJust a slob like one of us
\nJust a stranger on the bus
\nTrying to make his way home<\/p>\n

If God had a face what would it look like
\nAnd would you want to see
\nIf seeing meant that you would have to believe
\nIn things like heaven and in jesus and the saints and all the prophets<\/p>\n

And yeah yeah god is great yeah yeah god is good
\nyeah yeah yeah yeah yeah<\/p>\n

What if God was one of us
\nJust a slob like one of us
\nJust a stranger on the bus
\nTrying to make his way home
\nHe’s trying to make his way home
\nBack up to heaven all alone
\nNobody calling on the phone
\nExcept for the pope maybe in rome<\/p>\n

And yeah yeah God is great yeah yeah God is good
\nyeah yeah yeah yeah yeah<\/p>\n

What if god was one of us
\nJust a slob like one of us
\nJust a stranger on the bus
\nTrying to make his way home
\nJust trying to make his way home
\nLike a holy rolling stone
\nBack up to heaven all alone
\nJust trying to make his way home
\nNobody calling on the phone
\nExcept for the pope maybe in rome<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
