'cept when you read the lyrics you understand that Martin Gore is suggesting that he is the Personal Jesus DM sings of.

That being understood I never could consider the song to actually be about Jesus or Faith.

But the Lord works in strange ways when he approaches.

I was tripping on the lyrics for the song "Back on the Chain Gang" by the Pretenders. Pretty cool song.
✔ I found a picture of you, oh-oh Well, it hijacked my world at night To a place in the past we've been cast out of, oh-oh Now we're back in the fight We're back on the train, yeah Oh, back on the chain gang Circumstance beyond our control, oh-oh The phone, the TV and the news of the world Got in the house like a pigeon from hell, oh-oh Threw sand in our eyes and descended like flies Put us back on the train, yeah Oh, back on the chain gang The powers that be That force us to live like we do Bring me to my knees When I see what they've done to you Well, I'll die as I stand here today Knowing that deep in my heart They'll fall to ruin one day For making us part I found a picture of you, oh-oh Those were the happiest days of my life Like a break in the battle was your part, oh-oh In the wretched life of a lonely heart Now I'm back on the train, yeah Oh, back on the chain gang
