The southern rock and country band, which rocketed into the mainstream around 2023, describe themselves as not as a Christian band, but a band full of Christians. Their faith and outspokenness about the Lord is often intertwined with their music, and really shined through in their sophomore album Made By These Moments.
Which makes sense… if you are band full of Christians and you put together an album that’s about the highs and lows of life, God is going to be working within those moments.
I was fortunate enough to see the talented band from Mobile, Alabama at their first ever headlining concert at Red Rocks not too long ago, and there were many times throughout their performance that the stone stair seating at the iconic venue briefly transformed into church pews. They were really taking the crowd to church that night, and they take pride in doing so every time they get up on stage.
Which got me thinking, “What are some Red Clay Strays songs that you wouldn’t be surprised to hear in church?” The label of “Gospel music” covers a lot of ground, and at the basis of things, it’s just songs that glorify and praise the Lord. The Red Clay Strays have plenty of those, so without further ado, here are five songs by the group that could very easily be included in a worship team’s set.
5. “Devil In My Ear”
“I try to push ’em all away
But those thoughts, they stick around Thriving on my pain and they keep bringing me down I pray to God for peace of mind, for the gloom to disappear I can’t find a cause to live with the devil in my ear”
4. “Sunshine”
“I admit at times I’ve been unfaithful
Times where all I do is worry and doubt That’s when my God comes like warmin’ rays of summer Meltin’ all my worries and my insecurity And givin’ me the strength I’ve been without”
3. “On My Knees”
“I’m gonna fall
Down on my knees And thank the Lord For bringing me peace I’ll lift my hands In his company For you know I am grateful For what He has done for me”
2. “Will The Lord Remember Me”
“Will the Lord remember me when I am called to go?
When I have crossed death’s chilly sea Will He, His love there show? Oh, yes (oh, yes), He heard my feeble cry (ooh) From bondage set me free (set me free) And when I reach those Pearly Gates, He will remember me”
1. “God Does”
“Wherever I’m lacking
It’s he who makes me whole Shining through the darkness And cleaning out my soul
How about a bonus one?
This song hasn’t officially been released by the Red Clay Strays, but it’ll soon and likely find a home on their next record. It’s called “Revival,” and it would easily fit into this list (I’d probably slot it at 2 or 3). But since it’s yet to be released, and the Red Clay Strays have only been playing it while they are out on their “Get Right Tour,” it can’t officially make the list of songs of theirs that could very well be played by a worship team at church.
Still deserves a shout out in this story though:
