I'm an Atheist (and proud) but damn I love this song. Especially the dc Talk version.

@hukes No completely new media has been created in centuries (maybe longer); everything has drawn on sources from somewhere else because virtually every palatable chord progression, vocal style, writing style, drawing style, and so forth has already been used by the many billions of people who have yet lived and created them. Since the earliest forms of music from all over the globe were spiritual in origin, it could be argued that ultimately modern mainstream music has emulated the spiritual.

@hukes You may not agree with how their using their talent but don't question the talent. I'm Christian; i'm a musician my skills are used as people want ME. Musicians WHO WANT WORK BETTER KNOW HOW TO EMULATE OTHER ARTISTS. If we don't copy other players, then rock n'roll would be left with Elvis and blues would have never reached B.B. king. To say that any musician is less because they sound too mainstream is like asking EVERY musician for the last 70 years to "stop trying its been done" yudig?

@viewfoundfilms1 True. I really don't know many Christian music, but what I've heard is emulations of mainstream music and I -in my most humble opinion- think that they could reach other levels of worship if they didn't try to imitate mainstream musical genres. But that is just me, knowing that I might have a narrow point of view. :)

@hukes Being an Athiest, I highly doubt that you've even come close to discovering Christian Music. There are artists that I'm sure, you have never heard of, that write music for the glory of God, and for no other purpose. These artists that I'm talking about, don't write for people, or to gain respect, or followers. These artists write as an act of worship, to connect to the one and only true God, and for no other reason. So I argue that music like that, can be "mainstream".
