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

            Church of the poison mind by Culture Club

             

            "In the church of the poison mind

            Watch me clinging to the beat

            I had to fight to make it mine

            That religion you could sink it neat".......

              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

                  "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"......

                      Slip Slidin' Away - Paul Simon

                       

                      God only knows
                      God makes his plan
                      The information's unavailable
                      To the mortal man
                      We work our jobs
                      Collect our pay
                      Believe we're gliding down the highway
                      When in fact we're slip slidin' away

                                        Pray to God by Calvin Harris, feat. Haim 

                                        (Lots of prayer involved when love disappears)

                                         

                                        "Ooh, I remember when this road was my own

                                        I pray to God, I just don't know anymore

                                        I pray to God, I just don't know anymore 

                                        And ooh, I lost the feeling, but I'm tryin' a hold on

                                        I thought the end of love is what made you strong

                                        I pray to God, I just don't know anymore".....
