What are your favorite secular inspirational tunes?

I'm looking for inspiring or motivating secular songs that celebrate
life, the human condition, the universe, etc without invoking religion
or the supernatural. I am not interested in anti-religion songs or
romantic inspiration, those are good different questions. Put your
post-theistic hats on and think about what really resonates with you
in terms of life, love, empathy and the human spirit.

By way of example, a few of my immediate favorites I'd put in this
category:
Imagine - John Lennon
Life is Sweet - Natalie Merchant (or Peace Train - 10,000 Maniacs)
What a Wonderful World - Louis Armstrong
Do You Realize? - Flaming Lips
Drive - Incubus
You Are Everything - REM
