So yes, I know the song can be a bit cheesy and the Fray are now a bit too popular for anyone with any sort of indy cred to like.  But I really like this song, just as I like any song with a deep sense of religious yearning.  The song is about being really angry at God, about feeling disappointed that the world is the way it is and that God seems not to be there.  I can totally identify with this.  This is why I love the novels of Salman Rushdie and the movies of Ingmar Bergman, or that other popular God song–Joan Osborne’s One of Us. These songs, and these books, and these movies, even if they are ostensibly about doubt, are really about faith, or at least the deep yearning for faith, the painful desire to believe and to know fully that you believe.  “I believe, help my unbelief” is just about the best description of my faith that I can think of, and songs like these are powerful encouragements for me.
