The Passion of the Christ: Songs, by various artists (Lost Keyword). Assorted rock, pop and R&B.

You'd think two soundtracks to Mel Gibson's film (one a traditional score, the other a classic song collection) would be enough, but here collies a third release featuring flesh material inspired by the film. The results are mixed; Scott Stapp, in his first post-Creed effort, sounds stilted on "'Relearn Love," while Third Day, Stephen Curtis Chapman and MercyMe deliver strident but typical anthemic fare on "I See Love." Still, this album boasts a depth of talent, from hard rockers ROD, to pop upstart Big Dismal. The standout moment comes via Lauryn Hill, whose funky cut "The Passion" is redolent with emotion worthy of its title.
