I didn't actually know this was the basis of Run Runaway until recently.

And my personal favorite hymn in all its soft and soppy glory.
 
I have a weakness of Georgia male choirs. Most of what they sing are secular, but of course they avail themselves in Orthodox worships too. Trio Kavkasia is an America-based group with an attractive sonority which has produced very few CDs. "Movedit Da Vsvat" ("Come Let Us Drink") is an Eucharist chant.

A bigger, more internationally famous group is the Rustavi Choir. Here they sing "Shen Khar Venakhi" ("You Are The Vineyard")
You are a vineyard newly blossomed.
Young, beautiful, growing in Eden,
(A fragrant poplar sapling in Paradise.)
(May God adorn you. No one is more worthy of praise.)
You yourself are the sun, shining brilliantly.
 
Lust Control is a Christian thrash punk band, originally formed in 1988. They are known for their explicit lyrical content, which is devoted to matters of sexual purity and sin, including abstinence, masturbation, pornography, sex ed, and related topics.[1][2][3] For their unwavering views on sexual purity, CCM magazine has called Lust Control as "the Josh McDowell of the Christian rock world."[4] Musically they have been likened to The Ramones or The Dead Milkmen.[5] The band formed as a joke and was not meant for long term exposure,[1] which has led some to refer to it as a Christian version of Spinal Tap.[2] Lust Control received the title of "The Worst Christian Band of the Decade" for the 1990s from HM.

The band's creators see themselves as performing a legitimate ministry with a message which is often marginalized or poorly approached in churches and completely taboo in contemporary Christian music.[1] For its creators, the goal was to emphasize grace and forgiveness rather than sin;[1][2][5][6][7] to that end the band offers devotional studies of the topics presented. The band has come under attack from groups on the Christian right, who take issue with their explicit lyrics and musical style.[3] Lust Control has released three albums of original material and an equal number of compilation albums.

This thread is a jem. I am not that into religion, but I find religious music soothing and just a nice background for work. Some of my favs:


Agni Parthene is an incredible thing, I have several versions on my playlist, but imo one of the best are:



Divna Ljubojevic is one of my all time favourites, I have heard her live and it was fantastic experience:


Also some Russian Old Rituals:

 
My personal favorite Church Music composer is Healey Willan. He was born and raised in England and immigrated to Canada, where he spent the rest of his life and established himself as a well-respected composer. Here is a gem amongst a kaleidoscope of compositions, An Apostrophe to the Heavenly Host. First part is text translated from Orthodox Liturgies and the second is a Fugal setting of the hymn Ye Watchers and Ye Holy Ones.
This is my favorite recording, in spite of the second part being transposed a step higher (the first is in the original intended key)
Here is a nice version of the final part in the original intended key:
