This rendition brings the hymn to another level, with the alteration to the traditional 3/4 beat to a 4/4 beat, and also adding in a chorus (My Chains Are Gone).

Do have a listen!

Someone already listed a bunch of good songs. I'll try not to duplicate, though many of those are in my list of favorites.
Tom Petty - "Learning to Fly", "The Waiting", "I Won't Back Down", "Refugee", "Running Down a Dream"
Boston - "Don't Look Back"
Jimmy Eat World - "The Middle"
Katy Perry - "Firework"
Natasha Bedingfield - "Unwritten"
The Avett Brothers - many of the songs on their "I and Love and You" album (You can listen to the entire album on their site, theavettbrothers.com/music.)
The Eagles - "Desparado"
Five For Fighting - "100 Years", "World"
Cold Play's "Yellow" is a happy, positive song to me. It seems like there are some others by them, too.

I know there are many more. Maybe if you told us what style of music you like it would be easier to help you find what you're looking for. Are there any certain bands you like? We like a lot of different types of music in this house!
