A few more religious themes:

When the angels hung out in Eden they saw Adam chasing Eve/
I'm gonna hang my head down tonite on Damacle's sword
(Temptation)

And these were our words/Our words were our songs/Our songs were our prayers/These prayers keep me strong
(In these Arms)

I'm praying to God you give me one more chance girl (IBTFY)

If I could kidnap an angel/ I'd clip off his wings/ Bring em to you/ That would fix everything/ We'd live forever/forever we'd never die (Kidnap an Angel)

Your love was my salvation/it could always make me high/what was once holy water/tastes like bitter wine
(Bitter Wine)

You promise me heaven, then put me through hell

The street life aint much better but at least I get paid.

As for Richie, how about the whole of If God Was A Woman.

i just read through all the religion and prositution themes. most of the religion ones are from songs released after the band hit really big. you think maybe the religion came from childhood but became someone realizing there is more to life than fame

Quite a few in I Talk To Jesus...

But, Mister, tell me are you one of the Saints
Hey, maybe I could take a number and wait
Chorus:
Well, I talk to Jesus, you don't believe me
I talk to Jesus, I know he hears me
And I talk, talk, talk, I talk to Jesus

Chorus2:
I talk to Jesus, you don't believe me
I talk to Jesus, I know he hears me
I talk to Jesus and Elvis Presley
I talk to Jesus, the king can save me
I talk, talk, talk, I talk to Jesus

Have you seen the papers today
If I could, I'd get down and pray
Tell me if the shepherds on the way

And there's the mention of heaven in You Can't Lose At Love

Now we just might roll a seven, these ain't loaded dice
We'll never get to heaven from this driveway tonight
You've heard a million promises that's never come through
Baby I'm telling you we're due

This thread is quite pointless, but...

That line about "your mother's rosary beads" in Love Ain't Nothing But A Four Letter Word

Undiscovered Soul (the song) is pretty religious as well I'd say. And "Made In America", obviously, as it's quite biographical with lines such as "But I kept on hanging on / Every night I prayed to Jesus / And held my head up strong / I was alright"
