Reach out and touch faith
Your own personal Jesus
Someone to hear your prayers
Someone who cares
Your own personal Jesus
Someone to hear your prayers
Someone who's there
Feeling unknown
And you're all alone
Flesh and bone
By telephone
Lift up the receiver
I'll make you a believer
Take second best
Put me to the test
Things on your chest
that we need to confess
I will deliver
You know I'm a forgiver
Reach out and touch faith -(x2)-
Your own personal Jesus
Someone to hear your prayers
Someone who cares
Your own personal Jesus
Someone to hear your prayers
Someone who's there
-Reach out and touch faith-
Feeling unknown
And you're all alone
Flesh and bone
By telephone
Lift up the receiver
I'll make you a believer
I will deliver
You know I'm a forgiver
Reach out and touch faith
Your own personal Jesus
Reach out and touch faith x5

I guess it depends how one wants to define "Christian Rock." This song of theirs sounds like it to me too from last years CD.
The Sinner In Me
If I could just hide
The sinner inside
And keep him denied
How sweet life would be
If I could be free
From the sinner in me
I'll never be a saint
That's not a picture that your memory paints
Not renowned for my patience
I'm not renowned for my restraint
But you're always around
You can always be found
To pick me up when I'm on the ground
If I could just hide
The sinner inside
And keep him denied
How sweet life would be
If I could be free
From the sinner in me
I'm still recovering
Still getting over all the suffering
More known for my anger
Than for any other thing
But you've always tried
To be by my side
And catch my fall when I start to slide
If I could just hide
The sinner inside
And keep him denied
How sweet life would be
If I could be free
From the sinner in me
For what its worth, the song "Personal Jesus" was written by Martin L. Gore of Depeche Mode.

Wasn't there a song with this title also used by Marilyn Manson?
Oh well, maybe Depeche Mode didn't want it to be classified as christian music!

lmao Depeche Mode and Christian Rock now thats a thought I never had!
Methinks the Churchies would probably see it as a tad Blasphemus or idolic but they are the Mode dude so ROCK ON!
(The Manson version was pretty awesome too!)

Looks like Christian rock to me.

Because the song is a parody of the Christian faith...it pokes fun at the devotion of Christians....not glorifies it.

I love that tune. It's really about addiction though Dude, herion addiction. I like that too!!! The Jesus thing is okay but hey, herion really gets my attention; if they had that at church they'd have a full house every day!!!!!!! Well anyway, have a happy new year!

Great tune. Johnny Cash did a cover of it a couple of years before he died. It's incredible. You should check that out.

this is a funny question. I think other real christian rock music does not contain words like "bone" and "alone" and "unknown"... it could, but it's highly unlikely...nice try though.
