  • Hands Down the best version of this song, period.

  • I love this song, but I have to nitpick. Having run the sound board for church, I can tell that the sound engineer has not balanced the sound (monitors) correctly. So the singer is STRAINING his voice to compensate. He is not loud enough in the monitors to hear himself clearly, so he is yelling and straining his voice.

  • meu sonho desde os 14 anos é cantar com o petra,hoje tenho 30 e continuo sonhando e desejando que esse dia chegue. sempre quis cantar com o petra e cantei com o stryper. mas espero em Deus não morrer sonhando...

  • @kezzsand cantar eu nunca cantei.. mas já fui num show deles em Porto Alegre! Foi inesquecível!!

  • não entendi seu recado,mas tudo bem,rsrsrsrsrs....

    eu desde meus 14 anos sonho cantar com o petra. já cantei com stryper. mas já me fez feliz..

  • @kezzsand não é recado, é só um comentário! rsrsr :)

  • they are very good!

  • I love this song. I wish there was a video with Petra with the lyrics so that I can use it at my deaf church.

  • I am a Christian, and I listen to rock and roll. Ever notice how Petra ripped off a Steve Miller Band bass line when they recorded this song? Listen to the song, "The Joker." Hmmm.

  • i'm forever grateful for having seen them back in the day when they played red rocks, standing right there in the front row - they headlined and kicked major holy ass!

    i don't even remember much of seeing them - just BEING in the music

    they know how to lead a real WORSHIP service!

  • It's funny, until now i didn't realize it but the lead singer goes to my church in , weight for it Sioux falls south Dakota

  • amazing petra

  • I agree with jimkahng

  • Petra (w/JS) is the world's greatest Christian rock band! This video proves it.

  • If I just listened to this song instead of seeing the video, I would've probably thought it is a voice of an African-American woman. Great singing.

  • REAL PROPHET SENT OF GOD, PLEASE BELIEVE ME ,DON'T TAKE MY WORD FOR IT COME AND SEE FOR YOURSELF

  • PETRA!!!! :-) BEOYND BELIEF:-)

  • Back in 2007 I believe, when Petra did their farewell tour and they came to Ottawa, their guitarist could not make it as he missed his flight due to a storm. They had a replacement guitarist but they only played maybe 5 or 6 songs...- it turned out to be a "question period". My question was "can I go up on stage to play a song?"- Hesitant, he said let me think about it. 20 minutes later I was rockin to this tune on guitar, no monitors, no vocal warmups singing b-ground + 100% adrenaline.Cool!

  • dasa nenn ich lobi

  • this video rox i luv it:-]

  • yeahh !!

    crazy :)

  • Es sind nicht die Gottlosen, es sind die Frommen seiner Zeit gewesen, die Christus ans Kreuz schlugen.

    TF1

  • Thanks Petra for spreading the gospel around the world for 33 years. Awesome job guys, God bless!

  • Senhor eu te exaltarei, como é bom cantar louvores, sou feliz com meu viver, sou feliz por me salvar... Voce veio do ceu para a terra, o caminho me mostrou, da terra para a cruz, meus pecados perdoou, da cruz para o sepulcro, do sepulcro para o ceu, Senhor eu te exaltarei...

  • Comment removed

  • i dont usually listen 2 this type of gospel....bt i like it its a FIRST AND MOST LIKELY NOT THE LAST

  • Supa Dupa

  • God bless u for this lovley song.

    i listened to this song because i would like to learn the right tune. I like to sing this too. beautiful and lively. makes me wanna sing and dance for my Lord Jesus.

  • I may have became biased, but haven't really much of Petra that I didn't like :)

  • Heard this band in Florida years ago....

    This is a song that I sing WITH, to the LORD...amen. :)

  • Great bandsound, but I don't like the attitude, the behavior and the affected manners of the singer - Worshipping means to me to make God big and not the musicians.

  • Thats about the same thing David's wife told him when he finally got the ark into Zion. God didn't let her have any children after that comment. Its ok to show your joy at serving the Lord with music.

  • WTF...Whats that about an ark going to Zion?

  • I think its perfectly good. Its Praise and worshiping. And Worshipping doesnt mean to make God big because God is already the biggest thing ever to be heard of. Worshipping is to Praise his creation his love the saviour and so on, not just to make God Big.

  • I agree with you: God is already the biggest thing but I meant this as a metaphor: this performance seems to me that the most important thing in this performance is the band especially the affected singer and not God. Worshipping never is something about us - it's always about God and this is the main thing a worshipping musician has to do. I don't feel anything of that listening and watching this video

  • that's the same feeling i have with this video but aren't we being judgemental about that because we can never know what the singers were feeling in their hearts while singing this song of praise to the LORD

  • I LUV IT <3, this is some of the best Christian/Catholic music or whatever

  • definitely not catholic.

  • SheldonCantUnderstandMusic as well... not neccesary all praises to God have to be in hyms... this type of praise songs will bring back the sons to the Lord who are long lost to the Devil... its a song about praise and worship to God, nothing wrong if they use metal... lets not politicise Gods love.. do you think God will not love the singers because the play metal....? Its because of people like you that our faith is dwindling and factions exist!

  • You missed what I was saying. I was simply saying this genre was not considered Catholic. To my understanding Catholicism seems to revolve around Mary. Not so much God. This say's Lord I Lift Your Name On High, not Mary I Lift Your Name On High. Just making a statement. Though good incite if we were having that debate. :) Just next time don't immediately jump at the chance to try to start a pointless debate.

  • actually catholisism is just a branch off of christianity. All Christianity teaches the same thing. the only diference is the interpretation of the bible. Some take it more literally than others. But in the end it teaches you what every other religion teaches you, treat the others the way you wish to be treated. WHo cares anyway. it's the music man =)

  • omg i was taught this song and when we sing we like have those hand motion thingys and its very entertaining! rofl

  • Haha I heard this in the car the other day and I was doing the motions. Showing them to my son!  I remember doing that in Youth Group! It is fun! haha

  • Beautiful song with an awesome band singing it, Petra, your great!

  • nice.. i love the song.....christian song

  • Thank you Petra for all you did to spread the Gospel. May God Bless you all.

  • There drummer is AMAZING! And so is GOD! God Bless!!!!!

  • God bless all of you

  • thanks for this beauty, bless, and amaizing video, we love petra and their ministry!!!

  • lets strive to pray more each day to our Lord and Savior! its gr8te!

  • God bless you and your works for putting this stuff on... thanks.. I don't judge any of you on this page, you all have the right to freedom of speech so write on and rock on get attention any way you can..

  • GOD BLESS PETRA FOR THIS SONG!

  • GOD BLESS YOU!!!

  • Actually I am a Christian and I stumbled across this page and every time you respond it sends me an email. It just never ceases to amaze me how shallow and mindless some of you who are caught up in churchianity are and how you could think this garbage honors God somehow.

  • You're a sad man, may God open your eyes one day soon.

  • 1 Corinthians 1:10-17

    God Bless

  • Mate simple answer. Its called Praise and Worship. For example, Hillsong Church. A lot of people say bad stuff about it, i dont know what they do inside their admin, but its still a church, and through their worship miracles do happen mate. And most pentecostal churches praise and worship with this genre(im not saying we only use this genre but it is widely used, again like Hillsong and Lakewood Church)

  • You're right, Im a sad person.Hey do you think if I sing this mindless song over and over I will feel warm and fuzzy about God? I can raise my hands and sway back and forth and look to the sky and even squeeze out a tear; then I can tell everyone how I was touched by the Spirit of God(because we all know that's how the Spirit works,He gives us a warm fuzzy,its in the bible you know). That will give me a great excuse to avoid sound doctrine and lift the name of the god of my imagination on high!

  • That's the saddest thing I've ever heard.

    My question is this: If you are so against God then why are you on this page? Did you come here just to be angry with the Christians or were you looking for something?

  • hyper 48fan u r fool fool fool no doubt in it u r unable to experiance the presence of god dont make such sweeping remarks fine u dont believe but be carefull dont dare to coment in that manner.

  • Wow God is so lucky to have you sing those words to Him!(end sarcasm) How many times is 'I' mentioned? Enough times for any fool to know this song is about 'Will worship' and not the Sovereign God as revealed in scripture.

  • wow im so glad that u think is good to be sarcastic to god lol.. sorry for u really.. god is lucky.. u r a sad person.

  • hai u r fool fool fool iam sick with your comments

  • Then You Dont Lkie What There Wirting then trun of your Comptuer

  • Hyper48fan there has to be an underlining reason you even stumbled on this page other than sarcasm and anger.. I hope you find that peace.. and also to the ones who posted negative comments toward you I pray they remember and get back to the spirit of God..

    I dont particularly care for Petra or this version but even if this touched one soul even just one soul and perhaps brought another child to God and got them started on the path to knowing and having a relationship with Christ.. Amen

  • Just fantastic, truly inspired by God! You guys are amazing!

  • Super!!!

  • so very great supernice song. so much style very good. GOD BLESSES YOU GUYS!!!!!!

  • I was fortunate to these this group perform at a community festival back in 1997/1998. They did this song there too. They are also. May Christ be with you all...always.

  • So tell me...Why you guys, are making a battle (God,Lucifer and what else)I don't know who's GOD or what's GOD but one thing I'm sure I believe in LORD,GOD,JESUS or whatever you call him, it's simple just believe and stop arguing,is that too hard?

  • this song is beautiful

    but i don't like the discussion who is better god or satan

    everybody can believe what he/she wants and nobody has to bring a choice

  • IM CHRISTION I LOVE THIS SONG GOD BLESS Thank you, Lord, for carrying me. I am so not worth You, but You love me anyway. Thank You for loving me and thank You for saving me. I LOVE YOU JESUS! Amen, sister! God bless your heart.♥:)

  • woo! my youth worship band does this song and I always think of this version when I'm doing it. so awesome.

  • god is awesome. I went to jesus culture and he was moving in big and amazing ways.

    and dark lord, your master is the father of lies and I assure you whatever promise he has made you is empty and shallow. you will see it before the end. but GOD still loves you and even now is knocking at the door to your heart do not turn him away. turn back to the light and be freed.

  • Nice Song

  • Hey Dark Lord,write and say all you want. But you and your lord know you have been defeated. So don't waste our time with your none sense prayings, cause God has already kick Satan's ass big time.

  • i love the triplets right before the accapella

  • Satan is a created being. And he is not more powerful than his Creator. And he has already been judged and been found guilty. And his sentence will be eternal torment in the Lake of Fire. And his time is short. And come Judgment Day, he, his beast & false prophet, and all who are guilty alike him, will be cast into the lake also. So why would you want to serve a loser and suffer his same fate ? But it's not too late. You can still accept Christ anytime before you die. And I hope you do.

  • Your soul must be as a vast and empty cave. Because all I hear from you are echos.

    So be it then. And according to your faith, be it unto.

    But I still hope you change your mind someday before you die.

  • oh you poor soul may god bless you and let the rain of his spirit wash you!

    i will pray for you!

    Remember god loves you!!!

    ans satan dont!!!

    i am a former satanic and know what i am talking about

  • TheDarkLordLucifer I'll pray to god for you.

  • I like PETRA... its a exelent son

  • lol  55 is scarey! lol u see the guys face! lol
