What if God was one of us

...just a slob like one of us...

...just a stranger...

...trying to make his way home...

What if God was one of us by Visible_Noise.

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

(What if God was one of us, Joan Osborne)

@ Linhy: this photo was taken while walkin down the street in Amsterdam! But for the meaning of the work it could have been every place on Earth - it should be every place on Earth ideed :)

bellissima.... otima idea di lasciare colorate solo alcune persone e hai fatto la scelta migliore sembrano in relazione, è come se ci fossero solo loro nonostante il mare di gente che li circonda!! davvero bella!

Visible_Noise says:

@ Antares & Marystella: i soggetti si scelti a caso ma non del tutto ho cercato di far si che non fossero eccessivamente visibili a un primo colpo d'occhio ma che bisognasse porci attenzione e in ogni caso che non fossero concentrati in un unico punto! Il mio obiettivo era proprio quello di fare in modo che una volta capito il gioco l'attenzione venisse catturata solo da loro :) Grazie a entrambe per il commento :)
