If the references to God and Jesus don't give it away first, this list is for you. You have to be pretty clueless to not figure out what you are listening to.

I think the point is that you would never hear a mainstream pop-song with the words marriage, praise, humble, or lift in it.

i call this stuff "sneaky jesus music" because if i'm scanning for a halfway decent song on the radio i will occasionally get sucked in by a guitar riff. then, inevitably, some wholesome voice sings the word "Him" and i know by the sound of their voice it's with a capital H. or some other way-too-wholesome-they-must-download-nasty-porn voice starts singing about, yes, clay and jars. and it's back to the scan button i go. sneaky, damn sneaky.

That's why Kanye West (or hell, U2 for that matter) doesn't get hassled. Originality. And honesty.

Seriously, a devotional song about Jesus with strippers, cocaine traffickers, and the word "shit" in it is just plain awesome.

I don't think the Pope ever gets mentioned in Christian music because it's mainly for Protestants, and they don't recognize the supreme authority of the most holy Pontif.
