Jesus is a Little Bit Country, and a Little Bit Rock and Roll

Perusing the CMT.com website for work (don't worry, I ain't no country girl now) and found something interesting in their store. THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST, SONGS INSPIRED BY. In case you're wondering what could fall into this category, it's mostly country. And then there's "Where No One Stands Alone," by Elvis Presley. Now, this song very well may be about God, Jesus, salvation, or any host (sic) of other things. But the reality is, that--lacking a flux capacitor and a tricked-out Delorean--a song by Elvis, who has been dead lo these many years, cannot have been inspired by a movie that came out two weeks ago. Not even Mel Gibson could get that done.

Or could he?
