"God Gave Rock and Roll to You" is a 1973 released song by British band Argent. It was recorded in 1971 during the sessions for their album All Together Now, but originally did not appear as an album track until 1973's In Deep, and was released as a successful single at that time. The 1997 CD re-release of All Together Now has the track included as a bonus. It has been covered by many artists, including Petra, Midtown, The Truth, and Bride. The song was remade by Kiss as "God Gave Rock 'N' Roll to You II" for the film Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey in 1991. It was later covered by Unrest on the "Buy This Used CD" compilation CD in 1993.
Recently it was rerecorded by the Brazilian progressive metal band Oficina G3, in DVD D.D.G Experience.
