Uplifting metal and hard rock

This is how a metal worship song SHOULD SOUND LIKE: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RdxdnVqn08E
Enjoy it until you can't enjoy it anymore. Then you enjoy it some more until all you can think about is BOWING TO JESUS' NAME.

Can't remember If they played this song but I saw them at a concert with for today and impending doom. It was an awesome concert.

Dream Theater has a number of uplifting songs. One pair of songs, I think of as a two-sided coin: Repentance (which is not-so uplifting, but a fair reflection on the human mind in the face of our shortcomings and the process of... well... repentance) and--the other side of the coin--The Shattered Fortress, which reflects on all of the positive sides of personal development through life and how we can help eachother.

Uplifting aggressive music is definitely something I can provide my two cents on.

A few of my favorite Christian heavy bands include Life In Your Way, Advent, Means, Project 86, Demon Hunter. and Thrice's older material if that could be considered Christian.

I'm in a Christian melodic hardcore band myself:

We actually have a gig with a fellow christian melodic hardcore act in VT tomorrow. Check these guys out because they're starting to blow up:

Emery is one of my favorite bands right now. Underoath is pretty great too, though they recently broke up...

I was told Burden of a Day is really good, and I like what I've heard. Anyone listen to them?
