Okay, here's the details, fellow believers: what's your favorite song(s) about God and Jesus? Genre can range from classic gospel, to country, contemporary, rock, rap, hip-hop, or even metal. Style doesn't matter, so long as the lyrics are of a Godly nature.

Since I created this thread, here's a few of my faves...

Crucified with Christ - Phillips, Craig, & Dean
You Can't Keep a Good Man Down - Newsong
Lord, Give Me a Sign - DMX
Three Wooden Crosses - Randy Travis
Angels - Amy Grant
He Ain't the Leavin' Kind - Rascal Flatts
Place in This World - Michael W. Smith
Live Out Loud - Steven Curtis Chapman
I Surrender All - Clay Crosse
Awesome God - Rich Mullins
Believer - Jake
I Smile - Russ Lee
Come Together - Third Day
Imagine Me Without You - Jaci Velasquez
Wish - Brian Littrell
The Champion - Carman
Everything - Lifehouse (lyrics can be interpreted either way)

[mrvlknight21]

Just about anything by Phillips Craig and Dean and Caedmon's Call.

[Kable24]

As a child I always liked singing "He has the whole world in his hands"
I like "Place in this World" I also like hearing Josh Groban's "Raise me up."

Even if people aren't religious, I'd like to think that some of these songs can at least be inspirational or even lift your mood a little.

[Lucy in the sky]

I can only imagine- mercy me
Not christian though

[Immortalfire]

Newsboys - "In Christ Alone"
Hokus Pick - "Rest"
Audio Adrenaline - "Man of God"

[Moviefan2k4]

I can only imagine- mercy me
Not christian thoughI laways considered that song a Christian one.

[KenshinAtrain]

anything by the band Ceili Rain
Table of Plenty
City God
Pretty much any religious Christmas song
Open the Eyes of my Heart

[mrvlknight21]

I laways considered that song a Christian one.

I think they meant they (the poster) is not a Christian.

[Moviefan2k4]

Newsboys - "In Christ Alone"I haven't heard their version, but I do enjoy Brian Littrell's cover of it.

DMX? Like the rapper?

[Moviefan2k4]

DMX? Like the rapper?Yep; I don't like rap usually, but that song is about a man who struggles with his faith, and starts trusting in God to carry the workload.

[mrvlknight21]

Yep; I don't like rap usually, but that song is about a man who struggles with his faith, and starts trusting in God to carry the workload.

WHAT? Seriously? Is he doing Christian rap now?

[Moviefan2k4]

WHAT? Seriously? Is he doing Christian rap now?I wouldn't know; this is the only song of his I recall hearing.

[Moviefan2k4]

Here's (http://www.anysonglyrics.com/lyrics/d/dmx/Lord-Give-Me-A-Sign-Lyrics.html) the lyrics to it, for anyone who's interested.

There's a new one I really like called He Still Calls Me Son by John Waller.

Another fave of mine is probably "He's My Son" by Mark Schultz.

[tzarinna]

El Shaddai- Amy Grant

[JayCaz]

My Sweet Lord - George Harrison

Listen to the lyrics. Seriously. That song is not about worshipping the Devil as most people seem to think.

Listen to the lyrics. Seriously. That song is not about worshipping the Devil as most people seem to think.How are these references to Satan considered Godly?

"he'll be the love in your eyes
he'll be the blood between your thighs
and then have you cry for more
he'll put the strength to the test
he'll put the thril back in bed..."

that sounds very pro-Satan to me.

How are these references to Satan considered Godly?

"he'll be the love in your eyes
he'll be the blood between your thighs
and then have you cry for more
he'll put the strength to the test
he'll put the thril back in bed..."

that sounds very pro-Satan to me.

You have to take all of the lyrics in context, not just one slice:

Shout shout shout
Shout shout shout
Shout at the devil

He's the wolf screaming lonely in the night
He's the blood stain on the stage
He's the tear in your eye
Being tempted by his lies
He's the knife in your back
He's rage
He's the razor to the knife
Oh, lonely is our lives
My head's spinnin' round and round
But in the seasons of wither
We'll stand and deliver
Be strong and laugh and

[Chorus:]
Shout shout shout
Shout at the devil
Shout shout shout

He'll be the love in your eyes
He'll be the blood between your thighs
And then have you Crying for more
He'll put strength to the test
He'll put the thrill back in bed
Sure you've heard it all before
He'll be the risk in the kiss
Might be anger on your lips
Might run scared for the door
But in seasons of wither
We'll stand and deliver
Be strong and laugh and

Shout shout shout
Shout at the devil
Shout shout shout
Shout at the devil

He's the wolf screaming lonely in the night
He's the blood stain on the stage
He's the tear in your eye
Being tempted by his lies
He's the knife in your back
He's rage
He's the razor to the knife
Oh, lonely is our lives
My head's spinnin' round and round
But in the seasons of wither
We'll stand and deliver
Be strong and laugh and

Shout shout shout
Shout at the devil x6
Shout shout shout x5 (fades into background)

The lyrics of each verse are all about how the devil uses temptation as a tool and that even though it feels incredibly good, the Devil will cheat you and ultimately do you wrong, which then leads to the bridge of "We'll stand and deliver, be strong and laugh and", which is saying that we'll resist the Devil and be strong and laugh at him and just shout at him (which comprises the chorus).

It's actually a very anti-devil song. It just uses rather blatant and harsh, shocking imagery to get it's point across. I'm an agnostic and even I can recognize this

jag

[C.F. Kane]

"Mache Dich mein Herze Rein", the aria for Bass at the end of Bach's St. Matthew Passion.

[TheFuture]

Man Comes Around-Johnny Cash

Jesus Walks-Kanye West

[VenomXXXXL]

One of the few songs from my old music-loving days that I can still remember:

Petra Creed

:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k54i00BSIdo

[LondonGirl]

hmm its gonna be

Hosana by kirk Franklin!

Amazing and lively tune :)

[Hoban]

10,000 Days - Tool

It's not technically about god, but it's about someone deserving to go to heaven.

[Moviefan2k4]

One of the few songs from my old music-loving days that I can still remember: Petra CreedI love Petra's music; my older cousin was a huge fan when I was just a kid. My faves are probably "The Color Song" and "More Power to Ya". :woot:

XWYMI-qlEvA

[Captain Planet!]

The Devil Went Down to Georgia

[Moviefan2k4]

The Devil Went Down to GeorgiaThat song doesn't have much to do with God (although "The Devil Returns to Georgia" has Johnny living as a preacher ten years later).

[Schlosser85]

My boyfriend loves "I Can Only Imagine" and "God Is In Control".

[tzarinna]

I like a lot of Jesus songs. I use to listen to Gospel music every Sunday morning.

[Eggyman]

Hey God - Bon Jovi

[The Chairman]

That's What God Looks Like To Me - Frank Sinatra

Y4i6iUzw5LQ

END THREAD!!!!

Agreed :applaud

If you want to get your Religion on this is your jam

Amazing Grace is awesome too

[Mee]

Right now I'd say Washed By the Water by NEEDTOBREATHE.

[Bunker]

Man Comes Around-Johnny Cash

Jesus Walks-Kanye West

:up:

[chamber-music]

Jesus Walks is great too. I remember a DJ in a bar refusing to play jesus walks because its too religous even though the bar was a converted church

[TheFuture]

Jesus Walks is great too. I remember a DJ in a bar refusing to play jesus walks because its too religous even though the bar was a converted church

I'll leave it to Mr. West to describe such a laughable situation;

They say you can rap about anything except for Jesus
That means guns, sex, lies, video tapes
But if I talk about God my record won't get played Huh?

[UA-Archangel]

Give me an old fashioned hymn.

[J. J. Jameson]

Basically anything from Krystal Meyers. "My Freedom" is a great song off her new album:

KG2NTB5vGUs


And "In Christ Alone" by the Newsboys always gives me chills:

[Captain Planet!]

You know what Moviefan2k4, Not only Christians like God songs.

[zahanbil]

I know the song sounds a bit sinister, but my favorite song that always makes me feel passionate is "Personal Jesus" whether by Depeche Mode, Cash or Manson, the last one being my favorite. It just makes me feel like I have someone to depend on regardless.

[Arcturus]

I'm not Christian, or religious.

Regardless;

Jesus Built my Hotrod (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3RBKTo5K14M)

[squeekness]

A living prayer by Alison Krauss. :D

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tLZAWtdFhio

In this world I walk alone
With no place to call my home
But there's one who holds my hand
The rugged road through barren lands
The way is dark, the road is steep
But He's become my eyes to see
The strength to climb, my griefs to bear
The Savior lives inside me there

In Your love I find release
A haven from my unbelief
Take my life and let me be
A living prayer, my God to Thee

In these trials of life I find
Another voice inside my mind
He comforts me and bids me live
Inside the love the Father gives

In Your love I find release
A haven from my unbelief
Take my life and let me be
A living prayer, my God to Thee

Take my life and let me be
A living prayer, my God to Thee

[Yerzrinot]

Yeah I got the album. :up:

I'd probably put Restless and The Heat as my favorites from it, but Washed is a bit more of a "God song."

[Super Kal]

the entire album "Manifestation" by Engravor... that entire album is Romans 8:1-16

[SuperMonkey]

I am a Christian. But I have to say, at this point, most "modern" Christian music just seems like monotonous, repetitive and mind-numbing.

-- FunBob

[Mee]

Just like most of mainstream music.

Pretty much any Christmas song there is.

Also, I love the melody for this song and it brings back some great childhood memories:

All of the covers are pretty good too. :)

[Metamorpho1977]

[amazingfantasy15]

While I know this isn't exactly the point of the thread, I think it's somewhat relevant and funny. I went down to where I went to college this weekend and was out partying, met up with an old friend, who got heavily into drugs and is now working on getting himself sorted out and is a Born Again Christian and knew of a Christian rock band playing. Me and some friends wanted to go to the strip club and he agreed to drive since he doesn't drink anymore, on the way he tried to convince us to go see this band. Knowing it was Christian rock we had no desire to see it and instead just kept repeating strip club until he stop trying to convince us otherwise.

[Metamorpho1977]

My favorite hymn is It Is Well with my soul. The story behind it is equally amazing.

Antestor is definitely an awesome band... before Antester, most of them were involved in a band called Vaakevandring

Yes Antestor is great too, and Vaakevandring is just majestic sounding.

I posted Crimson Moonlight and Slechtvalk, which are two of my favs.

Some other good Christian Black Metal:
Parakletos
Sanctifica
Kekal
Horde
Holy Blood (they are melodic/folk)

[Sarge 2.0]

Christian Black Metal? :huh:

I can get Christian Death Metal and whatnot, but Black Metal is characterized by being anti-Christian. :huh:

[XSpidercideX]

Christian Black Metal? :huh:

I can get Christian Death Metal and whatnot, but Black Metal is characterized by being anti-Christian. :huh:

Thats how it was founded in the 80s but in the 90s black metal bands started singing about nature, science, fairy tales, and mythology instead of just being anti-christian. These bands are all considered black metal due to the sound of the music being black metal and they are not anti-christian.

The first Christian black metal band came out in 94. There are tons of them today. Many Satanists get upset and will tell you otherwise but black metal is really characterized by the sound of the music these days, not the lyrics.

Does Livin' on a Prayer by Bon Jovi count? It's just a great song.

Does Livin' on a Prayer by Bon Jovi count? It's just a great song.I like that song, too; however, I doubt it would fit the theme of this thread, lyrically speaking.

Circle of Dust is the only "christian" band I liked. And the guy who did Circle of Dust isn't a christian anymore.

Another god song I like:

To Hell With The Devil by Stryper is still awesome (yet gloriously cheesy) song.

[Ash J. Williams]

Christian metal FTW!

[Ash J. Williams]

To Hell With The Devil by Stryper is still awesome (yet gloriously cheesy) song.
One of my favorite Stryper songs.

[Heretic]

I saw Stryper two years or so ago and they rocked it. This was right after Halloween so my friend and I bought some discounted bee costumes and showed up front row, wings and all. No one seemed to appreciate our homage to the 80's era.

I love Saviour Machine, I have all thier albums.... I posted one of their songs too. Never heard of Eternal Mystery. Virgin Black is good Gothic Metal too.

[Hunter Rider]

Hey God - Bon Jovi
Unanswered Prayers - Garth Brooks

But this is the best IMO.

[Ash J. Williams]

Eternal Mystery is Chistian goregrind, like Vomitorial Corpulence. I enjoy Virgin Black as well and I see you, me, and Kal have the same taste. Will be adding some the artists you guys mentioned to my last.fm. Bands like With Blood Comes Cleansing, Mortification, Becoming the Archetype, and Soul Embraced are encouraging as well as a blessing.

Haha, yeah I could never take Vomitorial Corpulence too seriously...I used to go to their site and listen to their first cd song samples while reading the lyrics and not sure whether they were serious or not. Not too much into grind, but I do love stuff like Scrolls of the Megilloth by Mortification.

Window-Out of Eden

[The Joker]

I'm not a Christian, but I do like the song Cassie by Flyleaf, even though it has the facts of the Columbine incident completely wrong. Cassie wasn't the girl asked if she believed in god, that girl was spared. Cassie most likely died because she cut in front of one of them at lunch once or something.

[Darthphere]

You know, a lot of these songs aren't "God songs" or Christian. They're just songs that happen to have lyrical content that coincide with your religious beliefs.

[Honey Vibe]

Hypothetically speaking, would you find it disturbing if a song you listen to has Christian undertones?

[Darthphere]

No, it wouldn't considering I'm a Christian. I'm just saying just because it's a nice song, doesn't make it a "God song".
