Religious Songs and Why They Matter.

I have shared this song on this forum before, but it is one that is dear to my heart. I believe that a person should not get baptized until they are willing to lay down their life for their faith. Some places that have heavy persecution will ask the person, "Are you willing to suffer for Jesus? Are you willing to die for Jesus?" before they baptize them. So often, in the West, people are so cavalier about their faith. 65% of Americans say they are Christian. I HIGHLY doubt that this many people would die for their faith. For example, many people just went right along with the Covid Vax due to just the slightest amount of social pressure. Knowing what the world knows now (even though I more or less knew it from the beginning) about how the Covid vax is more or less pointless for most people and does NOT "stop the spread," it's an example of government overreach forcing people to comply for dumb reasons. It's examples like this I draw from seeing that most Christians are very weak in their convictions (even though many of them talk a big game, such as being such strong supporters of Trump; I digress). Christ says that if we love our family more than Christ, if we even love our lives more than Christ, we are not worthy of Him. It's extreme, but Jesus was a pretty dang extreme dude.

 
Love this song. The whole vibe is great. Love the lyrics too.

War of Ages - "Heart Of A Warrior"


We indulge in lust while our city burns to the ground.
As the heavens open we step forth through the flames.
Pour out your sight upon me.
Strip my heart and leave me bare so I may live free from the very lie that hinders me.
I give my all to you.
You've saved me from my pain.
I'll hold true and never fall away.
As the flood washes over me I'll survive and follow you.
Come take this pride from me.
Lead me into a place of rest.
The only things I ask of you is that you hold me close.
The time has come to rise and bring a nation to their knees.
Our suffering is at its end and now it's time for us to stand.
Create in us a barren wasteland filled with flames of burning pride.
From the ashes we will rise against the prophets of staggered lies.
I now see why we must fight for our lives.
The earth will shake as the legions prepare.
This army is thicker than blood.
Stand as a warrior against our darkest fate.
We'll put an end to pride.
Our mere sight will cause the dead to rise.

As an aside, I get to see them play in September. First time seeing them live in years.
 
Impending Doom - "Murderer"


A coming fight is on the horizon
Violent love we can not hide from
A broken man watches vainly
To a world that can never save us
He prays for the first time
He cries out for a change and justice
Soon a great light will see
The people of the darkness
Of the darkness

We have to realize
A reality beyond our eyes
In an unseen world
The antichrist is gonna rise and we'll
Have to realize
A reality beyond our eyes
In an unseen world
The antichrist will fall

The future written in the past
A prophecy of everything ending

I am
A murderer
Wash me clean

We have to realize
A reality beyond our eyes
In an unseen world
The antichrist is gonna rise and we'll
Have to realize
A reality beyond our eyes
In an unseen world
The antichrist will fall

The antichrist will fall

Evil cost the world
A murder paid it all

(A murder paid it all)
(A murder paid it all)

I am
A murderer, wash me clean
I am
A murderer, wash me clean
I am
A murderer, wash me clean
I am
A murderer, wash me clean

I am
A murderer, wash me clean
I am
A murderer, wash me clean
I am
A murderer, wash me clean
I am
A murderer
 
Love this song. I view it as a love letter to Jesus.


Meet me in the secret place
The place where only we can go
Meet with your jealous heart
I am yours yours alone
Meet me with the honest light
The truth that gives me room to breathe
I'll come and meet you like I am your bride
It's the one place I can just be me

Jesus I've come to be with you
Jesus I come to be with you
Jesus I've come to meet with you
Jesus I
Love

I've come to meet you in the secret place
The place where only lovers go
Come and meet you with a tender heart
I'm vulnerable and you should know
Come and meet me in the honest light
The truth that gives us room to breathe
I'll come and meet you like I am your prize
It's the one place I can just be me

Jesus I love to be with you
(I'm at home when I'm alone with you)
Jesus I've come to be with you
(I'm at home when I'm alone with you)
I'll keep my heart with diligence
I'll pray with vigilance behind it all through it all I love

Jesus I've come to be with you
Jesus I come to be with you
Jesus I've come to meet with you
Jesus I
Love
 
The intro to this makes me chuckle
Cool song
