Any church goers hear. I remember the song from Watchmen. Don't really remember it from in church. Heard it last night on American Idol. Just was wondering and an argument with friends. Thanx.

I first heard that song in the movie Shrek a few years ago.

Watchmen was the second time I'd heard that song. During the loooong sex scene.

I googled but didn't get to far as to its origins. I don't ever remember that song in my church going days. A friend stated last night he sang it in church and that came up for some debate.

I would bet $5 it isn't a hymn.

He might have sang it in church after about 1985, when it was first created.
