It is unusual for a Christian Rock band to achieve mainstream commercial success, but that is exactly what Jars of Clay managed in 1996, when their debut single made a splash on Alternative Rock stations.
This is another song that I was reminded of by WXRT's Saturday Morning Flashback. On Saturday the 24th they were revisiting the music of 1996. I suppose this qualifies them as a one-hit wonder, but since they were in a genre that didn't expect to generate any hits, I'm not sure it mattered to them.
I remember this song from when it was on the radio, but I never knew anything about the band until listening to the flashback.
While I don't think that it is necessary, here is a link to the lyrics for completeness.
This is "Flood" by Jars of Clay from their 1995 album Jars of Clay. It was released as a single in 1996, and did fairly well reaching #37 on Billboard's Top 100 chart.
