One of Us - Joan Osborne
某天聽室友的音樂庫時聽到的一首歌。
這首歌大概以前就存在記憶中,因為拾起來的瞬間是這麼熟悉。
不同於那些情啊愛的,這首歌的旋律跟歌手迷人的嗓音,讓人覺得蒼涼孤寂卻又深深為之折倒。

前幾天無意中聽到星光的黃美珍也唱過這首歌,但是我還是比較喜歡原唱@@...
不過她對於歌詞的意境了解的蠻深刻,如果真的有神,如果他在我們身邊,會是怎樣的形態呢?
也許我們所敬仰的那所謂的「神」,就如同希臘傳說一樣充滿情慾與各種心緒,又或者如同電視常演的,化身成一般百姓的媽祖、城隍、土地公婆等等,就存在我們身邊,與我們擦肩而過。
如果神真的是我們當中的一份子呢?我們是否會因此念頭改變我們的作為?
我想這是一個很好的省思機會。
One Of Us by Joan Osborne
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
Tryin' 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?
(repeat *)
Back up to heaven all alone
No, nobody calling on the phone
No, just tryin' to make his way home
Nobody calling on the phone
'Cept for the Pope maybe in Rome

如果上帝有個名字,那會是什麼?
當你面對祂以及榮耀時,你會直呼祂的名字嗎?
如果你僅能問祂一個問題,你會問什麼?
是的,是的,上帝真是偉大。
是的,是的,上帝真是偉大。
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
如果上帝是我們週遭其中一個人?
只是個我們之中的流浪漢?
只是在公車上趕著要回家的陌生人?
如果上帝有一張臉,會長什麼樣呢?
如果你想看看上帝的臉意味著看了你必須相信所有的事情
像是天堂、耶穌、聖徒、以及所有的先知。
上帝正趕著回家,獨自回到天堂
沒有人打電話給他
除了在羅馬的教皇
