Favorite religious song

"Midnight Choir at the Rescue Mission" - Gatlin Brothers

Jonathon Long "Savior's Face"  off the album "Parables of a Southern Man"

Very good song and album, the dude is an ace guitar player.

I am not religious at all. 

Although I am not averse to religious music, per se, the only sort of religious music I can listen to, for purely musical reasons, are Indian devotionals, called Bhajan.

Thanks very much  for the very good link to this sitarist unknown to me...A discovery....an exquisite interepretation...

I like bhajans too  but now it is a raag or raga... 😁😊

Have you a favorite bhajan singer?

While most of you have never heard this song, it's been my favorite for years, "The Song" by the Dan Burgess Singers. Heard it on a Christian radio station, and found it on cassette and later transferred to cd. 

None.

Well get on it ASAP!

EBM belongs to The Church of the Blessed Laconic Mother.

Their holy patron is Saint Terse. 

Care to guess his favorite Bible verse?

Chris Lizotte's  Signal Hill Revival album is a good listen.  Marc Ford of The Black Crowes fame handles the lead guitar work.   Down At Your Feet is one of my favourite all time tunes.  BTW Chris Lizzotte is a pastor from Southern Cal.  I think this album came out in 2008. A great listen!

ZZ Top...Jesus just left Chicago.

Johnny Cash... Gods gonna cut you down.

Not religious myself either but when a child and my Mother put Mahalia Jackson on the console with the old Garrod in it and cranked it ...

Her voice made the hair on my neck stand up.

Powerful.... 

My fav song recently: https://youtu.be/ZpENe4GOMAwSlope 2 unblocked

Tourniquet, bloodgood, mass, deliverance, stryper, couple other Christian bands. 
 

 All these bands will. Get you fired up.

would visit my cousin in Tampa area as a kid, very religious family, he is,now a chaplain for the,military. Turned me onto Christian rock, and when I discovered Christ rock, loved it. 
would play for friends at parties, if they hadn’t heard specific lyrics,, they would never know it was Christ rock!

  Great stuff! 
 

if it jams, it’s good, the earlier metal with the Satan references, smart managers, band members, it was a gimmick, and it worked, hooked me early. On with Mercyful fate, bathory,venom, I remember seeing venoms welcome to hell in my record shoppe, the gold pentagram, name of the songs, it hooked me, as I was looking for heavier and faster, priest, kiss, Saxon, while I absolutely love them, I was looking for heavier, hit the flea market as a youngin, with my dad, found this one seller who had import cassettes, Motörhead, Raven, spartan,warrior, crossfire , Belgian metal, great stuff! Went there every Sunday  post church breakfast. 
 

anyway, there is an ocean of killer metal. With Christian overtones, it’s ironic,….yes, but if the other bands sing,about Lucifer,etc etc,…..why not positive lyrics, and Jesus. Great stuff!

still love strypers “the way” written by oz fox!

tourniquet, is great, deliverance absolutely,smokes!

Awesome stuff God Bless

When Ever God Shines His Light 

If I Ever Needed Someone

If you are old enough to remember the 1960's San Jose Group named People, you may recall they had a hit single with their recording of The Zombies song "I Love You". People had two lead singers, one of them named Larry Norman. After leaving People (my teen combo opened for the Larry Norman-less People in the summer of '69, at The Coconut Grove Ballroom on the Santa Cruz boardwalk), Larry embarked on a solo career as a Christian singer/songwriter, putting out out many albums for the emerging Contemporary Christian market. I saw him live in The Paramount Theater in Portland Oregon in 1978 (ironically, not long after having seen AC/DC in the same theater ;-), to a packed and enthralled audience. 

Not religious, but like Seinn Alleluia.

Great Thread

"In The Garden" by Bob Dylan, is one of my favorite Christian songs.  

Marty Stuart- Soul Chapel

@bdp24 - I think I'd have gone with 'Highway to Hell' - I suppose that could be considered a 'religious song'! 🤣
