We saw them about a month ago in Nashville. They played this song, along with Bema Seat, Clean, Angel of Light, Godpleaser, Second Wind?, More Power to Ya, Adonai?, Grave Robber, Back to the Rock, Judas Kiss, All Over Me, Stand up/Without Him We Can Do Nothing, and one other that I can't remember. It was a LONG concert, almost 2 hours, because they did 2 encores. But Greg never got tired. I almost envy his energy. Louie broke a couple of drums and duct taped them back together...seriously.
It's a shame Hartman's guitar work at 0:31 is so hard to hear. He's playing a Judas Kiss-like riff but it's mixed so low it might as well not even exist. Wait... it's a bit more audible at 1:23.
This is the first Petra song (in fact the 1st Christian Rock song) I ever heard after asking Jesus Christ into my heart & life back in 1986. Then in the 1990s, I was able to see them in concert in Billings, MT!!! They were awesome and I had a great time. Petra remains one of my favorite Christian bands. :?)
This song kinda scares me even though I Belive in Jesus, I kinda cringe at the part when it says "when they heard the hammer pound", it makes me sorry for my sins, is it supposed to convict you like that?? Also, when I mean scare I don't mean like as in im totally afriad of the lord, I just have a healthy respect for HIM, I guess that's the way it's supposed to be. But this song also screams victory, no more lamb slaughtering, IT IS FINISHED!!!!! PRAISE HIM HE TORE THE VEIL!!!!
I love this band! I have the Beat the System Tour 1985 Album on Audio Cassette and other Petra albums (mostly audio cassettes and the rest CDs), including the Back to the Rock Album.
Classic Petra is back!! New album out and tour starts this year!! If you like classic Petra please vote for them in the reader choice awards .com poll
All times are NOW, to "I AM". His love is as real today, in every place, reaching any soul who approaches his grace through faith. Praise HIS Holy Name ... Jesus IS LORD.
This song is so true, too bad they don't remake a new version w/ more guitars and less techno pop.

Raised in a Christian home, I got to hear a lot of Petra as I was growing up. Still love them even if I am now agnostic.

This was the second best Petra song of all time. The best song ever was "Adonai" on this same album.
BTW, "Beat the System" was the best Petra album ever.

the video is lacking, however, best christian rock song EVER. i was at one of the concerts at this time. AWSOME!!!

I agree with the "best Christian rock song EVER", except I wasn't at the concerts since I'm 16...
All of UPF's videos have only the album covers, but he has a HUGE collection of songs.

I think that the static video helps to concentrate in the song. And I keep uploading!
