God help us if we listen (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bacchus

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'god' is the definition.
(Bacchus is an example)

'help us if we listen' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'us' is within the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for bacchus that I've seen before include "Greek god of wine, also called Dionysus" , "Roman god of drink and revelry" , "Another name for Dionysus, Greek god of drink" , "Greek god of boozing" , "Divinity" .)
