Songs about Prayer and/Religion

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

Shine A Light  -  The Rolling Stones

 

Angels beating all their wings in time
With smiles on their faces and a gleam right in their eyes
Whoa, thought I heard one sigh for you
Come on up, come on up, now, come on up now
 
May the good Lord shine a light on you, yeah
Make every song you sing your favorite tune
May the good Lord shine a light on you, yeah
Warm like the evening sun
 
 
โ€œWhen the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace.โ€ - Jimi Hendrix

"Well, I read some books and I read some magazines

About those high class ladies down in New Orleans

Amd all the folks back home, well said I was a fool

They said, oh believe in the Lord is the golden rule"

"Turn Turn Turn" by The Byrds

 

"To everything (turn, turn, turn)
There is a season (turn, turn, turn)
And a time to every purpose, under heaven
 
A time to be born, a time to die
A time to plant, a time to reap
A time to kill, a time to heal
A time to laugh, a time to weep"
