I believe that DM and MM seem to take a "sarcastic" approach to the topic.  But 
Johnny Cash seems to turn the song around making it a genuine testamony.


 BS> The only song I know with something with Jesus is "Jesus he knows me"
 BS> with genisis, what do you think of it or generally genisis?

I looked this one up on the 'net and didn't realize that I heard that one many 
years ago!  I didn't pay much attention to it then.  It has an annoying sound 
and a frantic pace.   But studying the lyric, it looks like Genesis (Phil 
Collins) is taking  sarcastic stab at TV-evangelism.  Maybe they had a 
particular preacher in mind.
