Other Music

This section contains songs that have a Christian message but don't quite fit the title "Gospel Song" (This isn't a strict categorisation and in some cases it's open to debate) . Songs such as "You'll Never Walk Alone" don't mention Jesus or God; it wasn't written as a Gospel song but many singers use it in the Gospel context, therefore I think it's suitable for inclusion. Other songs with unusual origins are "Impossible Dream" and "Loves Me Like a Rock", again these are included because of their popularity with Gospel musicians.
 
Apart from a few exceptional songs submissions to this section should have an obvious Christian message, not just a passing reference to God or love.
