Lions Christians

LIONS CHRISTIANS

One of the songs by Bang, “Lions Christians” is told from the perspective of the believers about to meet their deaths in the Roman arenas. Two of the earliest Christian contemporary hit songs came out in the same year (1971) as “Lions Christians”: “Signs” by Five Man Electrical Band and “Put Your Hand in the Hand” by Ocean. Interestingly, both are Canadian bands.
