5 Christian Rock Songs That We Love

Our favorite rock songs for believers.

1. Whispers in The Dark

Artist: Skillet

Theme:

Sung from the point of view of God, we are told that God will love us and hold us no matter what happens.

Lyrics:

Despite the lies that you're making

Your love is mine for the taking

My love is

Just waiting

To turn your tears to roses

I will be the one that's gonna hold you

I will be the one that you run to

My love is

A burning, consuming fire

No

You'll never be alone

When darkness comes, I'll light the night with stars

Hear the whispers in the dark

No

You'll never be alone

When darkness comes, you know I'm never far

Hear the whispers in the dark

You feel so lonely and ragged

You lay here broken and naked

My love is

Just waiting

To clothe you in crimson roses

I will be the one that's gonna find you

I will be the one that's gonna guide you

My love is

A burning, consuming fire

2. Take The Bullets Away

Artist: We As Human

Theme:

Someone calling out to God for help in their time of pain.

Lyrics:

I've got my finger on the trigger

One bullet in the gun

And I'm spinning the revolver

Thinking this could be the one

I tried to find religion

To see what I'd become

I was ruined by the world

But I blamed it on the son

Am I worthless?

Am I filthy?

Am I too far gone for a remedy?

Will you help me?

'Cause I'm dying

To be something more than a memory

If I reach out

Can I trust you?

Will you help me see the light of one more day?

Take the bullets away

Take the bullets away

I've tried to build resistance

I've tried to start a war

But no one ever listened

I've battled with the storm

Am I worthless?

Am I filthy?

Am I too far gone for a remedy?

Will you help me?

'Cause I'm dying

To be something more than a memory

If I reach out

Can I trust you?

Will you help me see the light of one more day?

Take the bullets away

You're so disarming

There's nothing left to fear

You're so disarming

I'd drop all my weapons to show you that I'm not afraid

Take the bullets away

Take the bullets away

Am I worthless?

Am I filthy?

Am I too far gone for a remedy?

Will you help me?

'Cause I'm dying

To be something more than a memory

If I reach out

Can I trust you?

Will you help me see the light of one more day?

Take the bullets away

Take the bullets away

Take the bullets away

Take the bullets away

Take the bullets away

3. Breathe Into Me

Artist: Red

Theme:

Asking God to breathe into you, because you fall without Him.

Lyrics:

And this is how it feels when I ignore the words you spoke to me

And this is where I lose myself when I keep running away from you

And this is who I am when I don't know myself anymore

And this is what I choose when it's all left up to me

Breathe your life into me

I can feel you

I'm falling, falling faster

Breathe your life into me

I still need you

I'm falling, falling

Breathe into me

And this is how it looks when I am standing on the edge

And this is how I break apart when I finally hit the ground

And this is how it hurts when I pretend I don't feel any pain

And this is how I disappear when I throw myself away

Breathe into me, breathe into me,

Breathe into me, breathe into me!

Ah!

Breathe your life into me!

Falling, falling

Falling breath in to me!

Breathe into me

Breathe into me!

Breathe into me!

Breathe into me!

Breathe!

4. Alive

Artist: P.O.D.

Theme:

A positive song depicting the positive life from having a relationship with God.

Lyrics:

Everyday is a new day

I'm thankful for every breath I take

I won't take it for granted

So I learn from my mistakes

It's beyond my control, sometimes it's best to let go

Whatever happens in this lifetime

So I trust in love

You have given me peace of mind

I feel so alive for the very first time

I can't deny you

I feel so alive

I feel so alive for the very first time

And I think I can fly

Sunshine upon my face

A new song for me to sing

Tell the world how I feel inside

Even though it might cost me everything

Now that I know this, so beyond, I can't hold this

I can never turn my back away

Now that I've seen you

I can never look away

Now that I know you (I could never turn my back away)

Now that I see you (I could never look away)

Now that I know you (I could never turn my back away)

Now that I see you (I believe no matter what they say)

5. Be My Escape

Artist: Relient K

Theme:

Letting go of an imprisoning life and having freedom with Jesus. 

Lyrics:

I've given up on giving up slowly,

I'm blending in so you won't even know me

Apart from this whole world that shares my fate

This one last bullet you mention is my one last shot at redemption

Because I know to live you must give your life away

And I've been housing all this doubt and insecurity and

I've been locked inside that house all the while You hold the key

And I've been dying to get out and that might be the death of me

And even though, there's no way in knowing

Where to go, promise I'm going because

I gotta get outta here

I'm stuck inside this rut that I fell into by mistake

I gotta get outta here

And I'm begging you, I'm begging you, I'm begging you to be my escape.

I'm giving up on doing this alone now

'Cause I've failed and I'm ready to be shown how

He's told me the way and I'm trying to get there

And this life sentence that I'm serving

I admit that I'm every bit deserving

But the beauty of grace is that it makes life not fair

'Cause I've been housing all this doubt and insecurity and

I've been locked inside that house all the while you hold the key

And I've been dying to get out and that might be the death of me

And even though, there's no way in knowing

Where to go, promise I'm going because

I gotta get outta here

'Cause I'm afraid that this complacency is something I can't shake

I gotta get outta here

And I'm begging you, I'm begging you, I'm begging You to be my escape.

I am a hostage to my own humanity

Self detained and forced to live in this mess I've made

And all I'm asking is for you to do what You can with me

But I can't ask You to give what You already gave

'Cause I've been housing all this doubt and insecurity and

I've been locked inside that house all the while you hold the key

And I've been dying to get out and that might be the death of me

And even though, there's no way in knowing

Where to go, promise I'm going because

I've gotta get outta here

I'm stuck inside this rut that I fell into by mistake

I've gotta get outta here

And I'm begging you, I'm begging you, I'm begging you to be my escape.

I fought you for so long

I should have let you in

Oh how we regret those things we do

And all I was trying to do was save my own skin

But so were you

So were you
