Favorite religious song

Many are totally unaware of this song and its message.

After Forever - Black Sabbath ( Master of Reality)

"After Forever"
 

Have you ever thought about your soul - can it be saved?
Or perhaps you think that when you're dead you just stay in your grave
Is God just a thought within your head or is he a part of you?
Is Christ just a name that you read in a book when you were in school?

When you think about death do you lose your breath or do you keep your cool?
Would you like to see the Pope on the end of a rope - do you think he's a fool?
Well I have seen the truth, yes I've seen the light and I've changed my ways
And I'll be prepared when you're lonely and scared at the end of our days

Could it be you're afraid of what your friends might say
If they knew you believe in God above?
They should realize before they criticize
that God is the only way to love

Is your mind so small that you have to fall
In with the pack wherever they run
Will you still sneer when death is near
And say they may as well worship the sun?

I think it was true it was people like you that crucified Christ
I think it is sad the opinion you had was the only one voiced
Will you be so sure when your day is near, say you don't believe?
You had the chance but you turned it down, now you can't retrieve

Perhaps you'll think before you say that God is dead and gone
Open your eyes, just realize that he's the one
The only one who can save you now from all this sin and hate
Or will you still jeer at all you hear? Yes! I think it's too late.

I would add Pearls Before Swine: “The Jeweler.”

One of my favorites, performed by one of my favorite groups.

Don Moen......Give thanks , CD Let your Glory Fall.. Ron Kenoly Sing OuT praise and Worship...

We Bid You Goodnight as performed by The Grateful Dead.

God Save the Queen by the Sex Pistols.

For some reason the first song I thought of was "By the Rivers of Babylon" from the soundtrack of "The Harder they Come."

My Sweet Lord - George Harrison...  I'm not very religious and I think it's a well done song. 

I do not listen to religious songs on my home system.  If I want religious music, there are churches everywhere.

Hallelujah-Leonard Cohen

I'm a big fan of Americana / Alt-Country. One of my favorite songs from that Genre just happens to be a "religious song".

Mindy Smith - "Come to Jesus"

Fantastic song and good sound quality to boot...

@lg1 - While I don't agree that "One Toke Over the Line" is a religious song, I do enjoy the song. Just listened the the album that contains that track - Brewer and Shipley - "Tarkio" on the turntable a couple of nights ago. Really, pretty good folk/rock album from that era.

For religious subject of lyrics:  Randy Newman's "God's Song (that is why I love mankind)" 

For liturgical classical music:  "Bach Bminor Mass,"  Bach "St. Mathew Passion,"  Mozart "Requiem," Michael Haydn "Requiem,"  Penderecki "Credo"

Jazz: "A Love Supreme"
