[Intro]
One of us
[Verse 1]
When the world tries to tell you're not good enough
When the world tries to tell you're not strong enough
When the world really claims that you're not enough
It's ruled by liars
When the world tries to tell you're not cool enough
When the world tries to tell you're not smart enough
When the world really claims that you're not enough
It's ruled by thieves
[Verse 2]
Do you know why you feel like an alien
To the mob, to the crowd almost every man
Do you know why you feel like a stranger thing?
Planet Earth is ruled by Satan
Do you know why you feel so much pain within?
Why you're sad, why you're tired and you won't fit in?
Do you know why you feel like a foreigner?
You belong to Christ
[Chorus]
What if God was one of us
Just a waif like one of us
Just a misfit, one of us
What if God was one of us
[Verse 3]
When the world tries to tell you're not rich enough
When the world tries to tell you're not slick enough
When the world really claims that you're not enough
It's ruled by liars
When the world tries to tell you're not thin enough
When the world tries to tell you're not fine enough
When the world really claims that you're not enough
It's ruled by thieves
[Verse 4]
Do you know why you're right when you feel estranged
So alone, pretty lost, totally deranged
Do you know why you feel like a visitor?
Planet Earth is ruled by Satan
Do you know who's the end and the very start?
Who is God and a man?
Who can heal your heart?
Do you know who's the one who can make you whole?
It's Jesus Christ!
[Chorus]
What if God was one of us
Just a waif like one of us
Just a misfit, one of us
What if God was one of us
[Bridge]
We try to pretend how great we are
Like flies we are captured in a jar
We try to escape but ain't get far
There's only one way out:
Jesus Christ!
[Chorus]
What if God was one of us
Just a waif like one of us
Just a misfit, one of us
What if God was one of us
What if God was one of us
On the Cross He died for us!
[Outro]
And He rose on the third day!
