The Vatican Rag -- Tom Lehr
First you get down on your knees,
Fiddle with your rosaries,
Bow your head with great respect,
And genuflect, genuflect, genuflect!
Do whatever steps you want if
You have cleared them with the Pontiff.
Everybody say his own
Kyrie eleison,
Doin' the Vatican Rag.
Get in line in that processional,
Step into that small confessional.
There the guy who's got religion'll
Tell you if your sin's original.
If it is, try playin' it safer,
Drink the wine and chew the wafer,
Two, four, six, eight,
Time to transubstantiate!
So get down upon your knees,
Fiddle with your rosaries,
Bow your head with great respect,
And genuflect, genuflect, genuflect!
Make a cross on your abdomen,
When in Rome do like a Roman;
Ave Maria,
Gee, it's good to see ya.
Gettin' ecstatic an' sorta dramatic an'
Doin' the Vatican
Rag!

Randy Newman
God's Song (That's Why I Love Mankind)
Cain slew Abel, Seth knew not why
For if the children of Israel were to multiply
Why must any of the children die?
So he asked the Lord
And the Lord said:
Man means nothing, he means less to me
Than the lowliest cactus flower
Or the humblest Yucca tree
He chases round this desert
'Cause he thinks that's where I'll be
That's why I love mankind
I recoil in horror fro the foulness of thee
From the squalor and the filth and the misery
How we laugh up here in heaven at the prayers you offer me
That's why I love mankind
The Christians and the Jews were having a jamboree
The Buddhists and the Hindus joined on satellite TV
They picked their four greatest priests
And they began to speak
They said, "Lord, a plague is on the world
Lord, no man is free
The temples that we built to you
Have tumbled into the sea
Lord, if you won't take care of us
Won't you please, please let us be?"
And the Lord said
And the Lord said
I burn down your cities-how blind you must be
I take from you your children and you say how blessed are we
You all must be crazy to put your faith in me
That's why I love mankind
You really need me
That's why I love mankind

There is no desire to bash or praise, there is only a will to enjoy or not. The are many religious verses hymns and whatnots that I've come to achnowledge during time. The native simplicity behind "He's Got The Whole World In His Hands" stands out due to its' nurturing and comforting affect on all... That "IS".

It's not really about religion, it only includes it, but I like "Imagine" by John Lennon.
Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today...
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one

I have many, but the first that come to mind is Gone by Teddy Huffam and The Gems, very old song
Gone
1) Mary came unto the tomb of Jesus
The stone was moved and he had gone away,
The angel said, fear not, I know who seek ye.
He is risen, this she heard him say.
Chorus)
Gone, the stone was rolled back,
Gone, the tomb was empty,
Gone, to sit at his father's side.
Gone, over death triumphant,
Gone, sin is defeated,
Gone, but he lives forevermore.
2) My friend if you don't know my risen Savior,
I beg of you, don't wait too late to pray,
Don't wait until his bride has been completed,
Don't wait until you hear him say too late.

This is Jehovah's Day
1. This is Jehovah’s day. His rule is here to stay.
He’s laid in Zion his Chief Cornerstone.
Let all lift up the voice and thank God and rejoice,
For in Jehovah’s Kingdom we put faith alone.
(Chorus)
2. Christ now in pow’r is here, and Armageddon’s near.
Satan’s old order will soon pass away.
Fearlessly preach the Word; God’s message let be heard.
Help all the meek ones God’s commandments to obey.
(Chorus)
3. God’s reigning King we prize; he’s wondrous in our eyes.
He comes in God’s name; his rule we accept.
Enter the temple gate! God’s favor supplicate,
That we may ever in his ministry be kept.
(CHORUS)
What will you bring, Jehovah’s Kingdom?
Triumph of truth and righteousness.
And bring what else, Jehovah’s Kingdom?
Eternal life and happiness.
Praise the Universal Sov’reign
For his love and faithfulness.
