[Here](http://www.ultranet.com/%7Emari/) is a site that provides Christian lyrics to popular, non-religious songs, so that you can sing along on the radio and not sin. I ESPECIALLY like the ‘Smells Like Holy Spirit’ one.

I’d give the webmaster more credit if they could tell the difference between “Pilot” and “Pilate”, but otherwise, it seemed to be the source of much humor 🙂

They felt the need to rewrite “Michael, Row the Boat Ashore”?? Boy, they must have some strict guidelines - if I recall correctly, the original of that one is in our (Methodist) hymnal.

Wow is that ever crappy. Stuff like that makes me ashamed to be a Christian.

Why did they feel the need to rewrite OBVIOUSLY religious songs!? Not fundie enough?

I feel a strong urge to record some of those with my band.

Know of any more sites like that?

Now I’m even more glad that I listen to NPR…I won’t be tempted to try out any of these abominations. But the Particle Man ripoff was funny LAMFAS.
