What if god was one of us

第一次聽到這首歌是在星光大道上 黃美珍的演唱
馬上就被這首歌的意境和畫面給感動到
於是上網找了這首歌
原唱是Joan Osbourne

這是原唱的版本 有不同的味道
只是從此之後
即使半夜被叫醒去看病人
即使走在又冷又暗的長廊上
我都會哼著這首歌…What if God was one of us
感覺很適點在聖誕節前夕聽
這是首可以帶給所有人愛和勇氣


If God had a name, what would it be
如果神有個名字，那是什麼樣的呢？
And would you call it to his face
而你會在祂的面前直呼名諱嗎？
If you were faced with him in all his glory
如果你在萬丈光芒中面對祂
What would you ask if you had just one question
那你會問祂什麼呢？若你只能有一個問題！

And yeah yeah God is great yeah yeah God is good
我知道我知道神是偉大的 我知道我知道神是完美的
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
我都知道…

What if God was one of us
倘若神就跟我們一樣呢？
Just a slob like one of us
跟我們一樣差勁呢？
Just a stranger on the bus
只是巴士上的陌生人
Trying to make his way home
正在回家的路上…

If God had a face what would it look like
如果神有形象那會是什麼樣的呢？
And would you want to see
而你會想看嗎？
If seeing meant that you would have to believe
如果看見代表你必需相信
In things like heaven and in jesus and the saints and all the prophets
那些像是天堂、耶穌、聖徒與先知

And yeah yeah god is great yeah yeah god is good
我知道我知道神是偉大的 我知道我知道神是完美的
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
我都知道…

What if God was one of us
倘若神就跟我們一樣呢？
Just a slob like one of us
跟我們一樣差勁呢？
Just a stranger on the bus
只是巴士上的陌生人
Trying to make his way home
正在回家的路上…
He's trying to make his way home
祂正在回家的路上…
Back up to heaven all alone
獨自回到天堂
Nobody calling on the phone
沒有人給祂電話
Except for the pope maybe in rome
也許除了羅馬的教宗

And yeah yeah god is great yeah yeah god is good
我知道我知道神是偉大的 我知道我知道神是完美的
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
我都知道…

What if God was one of us
倘若神就跟我們一樣呢？
Just a slob like one of us

Just a stranger on the bus
只是巴士上的陌生人
Trying to make his way home

Like a holy rolling stone
像顆在滾動的聖石

Just trying to make his way home
只是正在回家的路上…
Nobody calling on the phone

Except for the pope maybe in rome
