When his first wish was granted, he decided to pay an Ode to Jesus, with the help of Glee club, through some spiritually classic songs. Each team member sang several songs which included, “Only The Good Die Young”"I Look To You”"Papa, Can You Hear Me”I Wanna Hold Your Hand”"Losing My Religion”"Bridge Over Troubled Water” “What If God Was One Of Us?” These songs have been classic masterpieces of singers like Whitney Houston, The Beatles, R.E.M and ABBA.

For the last song, “What If God Was One Of Us”, the entire Glee club came together. This song is originally sang by Joan Osborne, and then by ABBA. It tells the audience how they might relate to God. Written by Eric Bazilian (of The Hooters), this is a beautiful rock, that refreshes people at the end of the day. And indeed, it refreshed the audience after the episode too.
