Lyrics and artist: "What if God was one of Us?"?

Pop/Folk genre- pleasant female vocalist, one of the lines is:

"If you had just one question, what would it be?" (maybe that) and goes on to speculate that God dwells among us, anywhere, anytime....

Interesting philosophical point, fun to dwell upon.

    If God was one of us

    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

    God has a name and face, and was one of us. His name is Jesus!
