Do you think sign language could bridge the language gap?

I've thought about it before and I believe if there was one basically universal kind of sign language it would help bridge the language gap and still allow cultures to maintain their own language. The sign for dog in Swedish would be the same as the sign for dog in German. Instead of learning to be fluent in several langues, a person can just know his own, and sign language. I know there would have to be differences (accounting for different alphabets, and some countries having words we don't) but think of it as if it were basically universal.
