Most 'Christian' song from a SECULAR metal or hard rock artist or band

Bush-era Anthrax is very atheistic. (Belladonna era is in no way Christian, but it’s less aggressively atheistic).

They take digs at Christians in any era but I agree, it amped up with Bush.

George Harrison - The Lord Loves the One (That Loves the Lord)
Probably one of the most Christian songs from George, well, this and My Sweet Lord. But neither are truly biblical or that Christian, more like karma and treating people well.

The Lord Loves the One (That Loves the Lord) Lyrics

[Chorus]
Now the Lord loves the one that loves the Lord
And the law says if you don't give
Then you don't get loving
Now the Lord helps those that help themselves
And the law says whatever you do
Is going to come right back on you

[Verse 1]
We all make it out like we own this whole world
While the leaders of nations they're acting like big girls
With no thoughts for their god who provides us with all
But when death comes to claim them
Who will stand and who will fall?

[Chorus]
Now the Lord loves the one that loves the Lord
And the law says if you don't give
Then you don't get loving
Yes the Lord helps those that help themselves
And the law says whatever you do
Is going to come right back on you

[Verse 2]
We all move around with objectives in mind
To become rich or famous with our reputations signed
But the few that can reach to this coveted slot
Don't escape old age creeping through their bodies like a rot

You might also like



[Chorus]
Now the Lord loves the one that loves the Lord
And the law says if you don't give
Then you don't get loving
Yes the Lord helps those that help themselves
And the law says whatever you do
Is going to come right back on you
Now the Lord loves the one that loves the Lord
And the law says if you don't give
Then you don't get loving
And the Lord helps those that help themselves
And the law says whatever you do
Is going to come right back on you

This thread makes me think of Tricky - Christiansands:

I've met a Christian in Christiansands, and a devil in Helsinki


Not very Christian actually, judiging by this interview:


“This was in Christian Sands in Norway, a Christian town – very strange, it’s a strange part of the world, everyone is out to convert you. It’s mad! Like I went to Helsinki, right, and I met a Devil in Helsinki and a Christian in Christian Sands – that’s fact!
"It is mad. I did an interview with this geezer who was an absolute devil and on the ‘plane going to Christian Sands there’s this woman trying to convert me. I’m leaning down because I’ve got a bad back and she starts rubbing my back saying, 'I feel you’ve got a good heart’. But what she’s doing is trying to get me down to this gospel church thing. It’s not that I’m not interested, it’s just that going to see lots of Christian musicians doesn’t really turn me on. Such is life – terrible isn’t it?” NME, Oct. 28, 1995

From Queen's first album (1973)

The song 'Jesus'

And then I saw Him in the crowd
A lot of people had gathered round Him
The beggars shouted the lepers called Him
The old man said nothing
He just stared about him
All going down to see the Lord Jesus
All going down to see the Lord Jesus
All going down

Then came a man before His feet he fell
Unclean said the leper and rang his bell
Felt the palm of a hand touch his head
Go now go now you're a new man instead
All going down to see the Lord Jesus
All going down to see the Lord Jesus
All going down

It all began with the three wise men
Followed a star took them to Bethlehem
And made it heard throughout the land
Born was a leader of man
All going down to see the Lord Jesus
All going down to see the Lord Jesus
All going down

It all began with the three wise men
Followed a star took them to Bethlehem
And made it heard throughout the land
Born was a leader of man
All going down to see the Lord Jesus
All going down to see the Lord Jesus
All going down

Are You Gonna Go My Way
Song by Lenny Kravitz


I was born long ago
I am the chosen, I'm the one
I have come to save the day
And I won't leave until I'm done
So that's why you've got to try
You got to breathe and have some fun
Though I'm not paid, I play this game
And I won't stop until I'm done

[Chorus]
But what I really want to know is
Are you going to go my way?
And I got to, got to know

[Verse 2]
I don't know why we always cry
This we must leave and get undone
We must engage and rearrange
And turn this planet back to one
So tell me why we got to die
And kill each other one by one
We've got to hug and rub-a-dub
We've got to dance and be in love

[Chorus]
But what I really want to know is
Are you going to go my way?
And I got to, got to know, yeah

And the irony is that Bush was an “Armored Saint”. 

I know… I’ll let myself out. 

“Shine” by Collective Soul. 

They’re not exactly hard rock (but close enough). 

The song is a bit vague lyrically… but seems kinda pseudo-Christian. The riff, melody and chorus is a perfect radio hit.

“Give It Revolution” by Suicidal Tendencies



Thorughout all time and history
The world's been mauled by tyranny
Now we're refusing to take it
The worst evil the world has saw
Were crimes defended by the "law"
Deny our rights and we'll break it

You got to break the chains that hold you down
Crush the tyrants to the ground
Freedom cannot be legislated

We'll bow down to no other one
Except The Father and His Son
They can't deny what He's created

Most wars never should have been thought
But this is a war that must be fought
We'll take a wrong and we'll right it
The greatest weapon of the fascist
Is the tolerance of the pacifist
We've got to stand up and fight it

We'll give it
You got to give it revolution, give it revolution
We're gonna give it revolution, give it revolution
You got to give it revolution, give it revolution
We're gonna give it revolution

Well you can put a bullet in my head
But you can't kill a word I've said
You got the disease, I got the solution, revolution
No matter how much or more you try
You can never ever make this martyr die
I give it revolution

Revolution!
You could put a bullet in my head
But you can't kill a word I've said
Give it revolution

No matter how or what you try
You can never ever make a martyr die
Viva la revolution
Revolution
