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

        Jesus he knows me by Genesis

         

        "Cause Jesus he knows me

        And he knows I'm right

        I've been talking to Jesus all my life

        Oh yes he knows me

        And he knows I'm right

        And he's been telling me

        Everything is alright"......

            "In the church of the poison mind

              Last Resort - Eagles  

               

              You can leave it all behind and sail to Lahaina
              Just like the missionaries did so many years ago
              They even brought a neon sign 'Jesus is Coming',
              Brought the white man's burden down, brought the white man's reign

               

              Who will provide the grand design, what is yours and what is mine?
              'Cause there is no more new frontier, we have got to make it here
              We satisfy our endless needs and justify our bloody deeds
              In the name of destiny and in the name of God
               
              And you can see them there on Sunday morning
              Stand up and sing about what it's like up there
              They called it paradise, I don't know why
              You call some place paradise, kiss it goodbye

                  By his grace, by his grace"......

                        Oh patron saint of lonely souls
                        Tell this boy which way to go
                        Guide the car, you've got the keys
                        Farewell to mediocrity
                        Kicking off the cruise control
                        And turning up the radio
                        Got just enough religion
                        And a half a tank of gas
                        Come on
                        Let's go

                                And the sign said, "Everybody welcome. Come in, kneel down and pray"
                                But when they passed around the plate at the end of it all
                                I didn't have a penny to pay
                                So I got me a pen and a paper and I made up my own little sign
                                I said, "Thank you, Lord, for thinkin' 'bout me. I'm alive and doin' fine"
                                Wooo!
