Songs about Prayer and/Religion

[BeatleloverKT]

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

I have always found his song Cleaning Windows to be spiritual.  But it doesn't mention Religion or Prayer specifically so can't post it here.

Lily (Kate Bush)

"Oh thou, who givest sustenance to the universe
From whom all things proceed
To whom all things return
Unveil to us the face of the true spiritual sun
Hidden by a disk of golden light
That we may know the truth
And do our whole duty
As we journey to thy sacred feet"
