One of Us
How could He know
Much less sympathize
With one who has fallen
As often as I
To a world that was lost
How could He show us the way
This mystery I don't understand
Somehow our God became a man
He was one of us
Somehow like you and me
The God we served breathed
The air that we breathe
He stood where we stand
So He knows what we need
He was one of us
To every child
To every man
Who's longing for someone
Who will understand
To each tender heart
Crying alone in the night
Lift up your eyes to a holy King
Who's walked the road of humanity
He was one of us
Somehow like you and me
The God we served breathed
The air that we breathe
He stood where we stand
So He knows what we need
He was one of us
He's gone before us
Through every trial and pain
We have a Savior
Who's lived and died in our place
He was one of us
Somehow like you and me
The God we served breathed
The air that we breathe
He stood where we stand
So He knows what we need
He was one of us
Somehow like you and me
The God we served breathed
The air that we breathe
He stood where we stand
So He knows what we need
He was one of us
Somehow like you
Somehow like me
