(Johnny Mathis)

Millions of stars placed in the skies by ONE GOD;
Millions of men lift up their eyes to ONE GOD.
So many children calling to him by many a different name;
One Father, loving each the same.

(Barbra Streisand)

Many the ways all of us pray
to ONE GOD
Many the paths
winding their way
to ONE GOD
Brothers and sisters there were no strangers
after His work was done
For your God and my God
are ONE
Millions of stars placed in the skies by ONE GOD
Millions of us lift up our eyes to ONE GOD
So many children calling outloud
by many a different name
One Father
Loving each the same

(Johnny Mathis)

So many children calling to him by many a different name;
One Father, loving each the same.

(barbra Streisand)

Millions of stars placed in the skies by ONE GOD
Millions of us lift up our eyes to ONE GOD
So many children calling to Him
By many a different name
One Father...loving each the same

(Johnny Mathis)

Many the ways all of us pray to ONE GOD;
Many the paths winding their way to ONE GOD.
Walk with me brother, there were no strangers
After His work was done,
For your God and my God are One!!!

(Barbra Streisand)

Many the ways all of us pray to ONE GOD
Many the paths winding their way to ONE GOD
Brothers and sisters...there were no strangers
After the work was done

By our God
Yes, your God
And my God
Are ONE.

(Johnny Mathis)

Many the ways all of us pray to ONE GOD;
Many the paths winding their way to ONE GOD.
Walk with me brother, there were no strangers
After His work was done,
For your God and my God are One!!!

Barbra Streisand "ONE GOD" (2001)
"The universality of faith and spirit is again addressed on her powerfully moving performance of "One God," Streisand first heard the song at the age of 16 on Good Night, Dear Lord, a spiritual album recorded by Johnny Mathis in 1958. "The message is that no matter what God you may pray to -- love and compassion is the basis of all religion," writes Streisand. "Each of us is connected to this family of man. This is something I truly believe in ... unity and oneness. It seemed like an especially meaningful thought.""

Review: Gregor von kallanhann in
Amazon.com:
"What's also almost uncannily appropriate is the final track, "One God." For a "nice Jewish girl," or rather a sophisticated Jewish woman and artist to do an honest Christmas album, some kind of acknowledgement that she is stepping outside of her own tradition is necessary. But reminding the listener of the universality of the truths behind the major religions is neither inappropriate nor "unseasonal." While there are those who might object to the inclusion of an ecumenical anthem like "One God" (at least on a Christmas album), others will find it a solace in the song's openhearted embrace of all humanity. It may have been inadvertent, but it was a message we needed during the holidays in 2001. We still do."
