After checking thru all our topics, I could not find one about songs about prayer and religion. There are, I think, a lot of rock songs out there that fall into this category. The song can have it in the title or in a verse, talking about prayer or religion. We should have fun with this! I will start with a fav of mine:

"Losing my religion" by REM

      Living in the Material World-George Harrison

       

      From the Spiritual Sky,
      Such sweet memories have I
      To the Spiritual Sky
      How I pray
      Yes I pray
      that I won't get lost
      or go astray

        Continuing with the amazing George Harrison:

         

        Awaiting on you all

         

        "By chanting the names of the Lord and you'll be free

        The Lord is awaiting on you all to awaken and see

        Chanting the names of the Lord and you'll be free

        The Lord is awaiting on you all to awaken and see"......

                                              Bono has written many songs with religious themes. This one is based on Psalm 40.

                                               

                                              40 - U2

                                               

                                              I waited patiently for the Lord
                                              He inclined and heard my cry
                                              He brought me up out of the pit
                                              Out of the mire and clay
