One of Us Lyrics

So one of these nights and about twelve o'clock
This old world's going to reel and rock
Saints will tremble and cry for pain
For the Lord's gonna come in his heavenly airplane

If God had a name, what would it be?
And would you call it to...

    It's an if proposition song, what if God appeared to be our equal, incognito "so to speak" a human being with certian limitations,identifying with our sorrows & heartaches.Comming into this world by natural means.Given a name at birth, and experiencing self awarness.It's Catholic in language.
