The kids were initially not allowed to sing religious songs, but Sue (who saw the performance and was moved by the compassion), told Will that performances of any religious songs could continue. After the song, it cuts to Kurt next to Burt's bedside in the hospital, as the episode comes to an end.

Lyrics
Tina:
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 Him if you had just one question
Finn with New Directions:
And yeah, yeah, God is great
Yeah, yeah, God is good
Yeah, yeah
Finn and Rachel:
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Finn and Rachel with New Directions:
What if God was one of us
Just a slob like one of us
Just a stranger on the bus
Tryin' to make His way home
Tryin' to make His way home
Kurt (and Quinn):
(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)

Just a slob like one of us
Just a stranger on the bus

Back up to Heaven all alone
