Monterrosa-24: "I refuse to sing this anti-Christian and anti-South song that promoted a secular movement."

Can you cite which words you'd call "anti-Christian" or even "anti-South"?
You know, many Southerners supported the Union cause.
They were not "anti-South" but were certainly anti-slavery.

Monterrosa-24: "...today the northeast is post-Christian but the South still has some holdouts who follow Biblical principles."

Not necessarily.
This map shows there are plenty of Trump voters outside the North East's big cities.

This song became popular when the war, originally to “preserve the union”, was repackaged in 1863 as a war to wipe out slavery. It’s a propaganda piece of music exploiting religion. Howe takes John Brown’s Baby music and write new anti South agitprop piece turning the Civil War into a religious war. Brilliant.

I’m used to the blue in Washington state but there sure is a lot of blue in the southern states

The county map is a very interesting one.

If you look, you may find that the seashore of Red counties is larger than that of the Blue counties.
