The U2 song that was inspired by the band's experiences at an American evangelical church is called 'I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For'. It is the second track from their 1987 album, 'The Joshua Tree'. The band was in the United States during their 'Joshua Tree' tour, and lead singer Bono visited an evangelical church in Harlem, New York. He was struck by the energy of the congregation and the powerful music they were singing.

The lyrics of the song reflect Bono's search for meaning and his struggle to reconcile his faith with the world around him. The song became one of U2's biggest hits and has been covered by numerous artists over the years. It is widely regarded as one of the greatest rock songs of all time.
