June 13, 201511 yr I just want to hear what some people like. Here are some that I like: "I am" by David Crowder "Because He lives" and "Alive Again" by Matt Maher "Soul on Fire" by Third Day "Beloved", "By Your Side", and "You are More" by 10th Avenue North "Do Something" "You are" and "More" by Matthew West "Waterfall" by Chris Tomlin "10,000 Reasons" Matthew Redman "Great I Am" by Philips, Craig, and Dean "I can only imagine" Mercyme
June 13, 201511 yr I love some of those...but I'm more of an old school guy myself. I love the classic old Hymns and a lot of the older country gospel... Turn your radio on Fourth man in the fire Will the Circle be unbroken Daddy sang bass Peace in the valley...probably along with Amazing Grace my two favorites Too many of the Old Hymns to mention that I love
June 14, 201511 yr I'm of the old school genre too...enjoy "He Lives," still get chills at a well-done "How Great Thou Art," and enjoy many gospel songs. But I got to play soft contemporary Christian music on the air the first three years of this century and found some "new" artists/songs that I really liked too.
June 14, 201511 yr Two late, great giants of Gospel music: Jake Hess medley, including "God Takes Real Good Care of Me," "Then I Met the Master." Vestal Goodman singing "What a Lovely Name."
June 15, 201511 yr I love all the songs above & some I would add: Blessed Assurance by Alan Jackson He Knows by Jeremy Camp Better Than A Halleujah by Amy Grant

June 15, 201511 yr ... I am Christian and I love music (to say the least), but have never been interested in where the two shall meet.
June 16, 201511 yr ... I am Christian and I love music (to say the least), but have never been interested in where the two shall meet. It would be nice if I could label my belief system in a word, and I suppose that it should be no surprise to anyone that I would use multiple words (like always) to describe it along with what is appealing and moving to me with some Inspirational Spiritual music. I was raised Christian (Catholic), then spent years calling myself Agnostic, to more recently settling on a "nameless tag", because through my human limitations I don't know anything for certain, and although organized religion can at times be inspirational it doesn't always add up for me, yet through some powerful unexplainable personal experiences, I've retained a certain sense of hopeful spirituality, and remain open to possibilities, for although science, mixed with my own personal basic logical analysis have been helpful to weed out some of what appears for me to be hard to subscribe to, I continue to allow myself to ponder those things that don't always meet the eye, with the realization that in my lifetime there's a chance that I'll die before finally ever knowing anything for certain, but with the hope that maybe I might. ...and after I die... I shall see...or perhaps... I won't. I've grown content with not giving this approach a "name",... and I love music (to say the least), but every once in a while a spiritual tune can hit home with me, and move me. Music has an emotional power over spoken words for me, and the spiritual side of me can be effected by some artists' performances of Spiritual songs, and though the analytical side of me might question the lyrical content, the hopeful side of me has at times taken these songs to heart allowing me to feel them, and to dream. Sometimes the effect it has on me is simply fond memories of my childhood resurfacing, and how I mostly enjoyed the music performed during church services that I attended as a kid. The following songs would be the best examples off the top of my head that fall into this category for me.
