An even better example of U2's might be "Wake Up Dead Man":

Jesus, Jesus help me
I'm alone in this world
And a fucked up world it is too
Tell me, tell me the story
The one about eternity
And the way it's all gonna be

[...]

Jesus, I'm waiting here boss
I know you're looking out for us
But maybe your hands aren't free
Your father made the world in seven
He's in charge of heaven
Will you put a word in for me?

[...]

Jesus, were you just around the corner?
Did You think to try and warn her?
Were you working on something new?
If there's an order in all of this disorder
Is it like a tape recorder?
Can we rewind it just once more?
