Miss my Navodaya hostel days 🥹 whenever there was a computer class I would go with my lyrics book and write down the lyrics on internet and sing my lungs out . Those were the golden days . Praise the Lord ❤ from India 🇮🇳

I'm not Christian, am not interested in religion, neither the churches ... But Petra is a great band is the band that I like in English, the quality is absolutely unbeatable seafront! I love all their songs
2021 desde Argentina! ¡Qué genialidad! Hace 10 años estoy en el evangelio, estuve apartada mucho tiempo, y las letras y melodías de Petra fueron de aliento y sosten, sin duda, mi banda favorita!
Eu tinha 13 anos cheguei em uma banca que vendia fita de musicas, perguntei se o cara podia indicar umas musicas boa, o cara indicou essa banda (mas só tinha em cd) comprei o cd e desde entao curto rock. Top!!! nostalgia pura p mim!
Just saw St Augustine's Pears "liked" by a youngster on Pandora. (Along w/ newer music) I love Petra but hasn't heard this song... So here I am on TH-cam taking a quick listen. Somehow we know when we first sinned. May others know the joy of first learning Christ loves them even if murder - not just stealing in-needed pears - is in their past. The memory is sweater. If our first relative, Adam, could damn us w/ one stolen fruit, how MORE will Christ's obedience SAVE US!
Gran Banda... profundas las letras de las canciones y con un mensaje poderoso! Se les extraña... pero se les recuerda siempre y a pesar de que pasen los años su musica siempre estara vigente.
Me costó unos cuantos años conseguir esta canción que no dejaba de escuchar desde que tenía 10 años, recordé que me parecía extraño el título y cuando descubrí el mensaje me pareció potente que destacaran el poder del remordimiento cuando hacemos algo indebido. No hay peor cárcel que el remordimiento, sin embargo aunque usted no lo crea, el remordimiento es solo para los nobles de corazón, que se sienten mal por haber cometido un error, recordemos que somos humanos y hacer de los errores una experiencia para no repetirlo y ayudar a otros. Cómo extrañé este temazo! Gracias Petra!
Aún no estoy claro si San Agustín del que hablan en esta canción es el mismo Monje catolico muy popular entre os Católicos el cual los cristianos utilizan un dogma humano creado por el el cual dice que utilicemos las propias armas de satanas para ir contra él, algo muy contradictorio a cualquier principio Bíblico, donde en el cual nunca vamos a encontrar en ninguna parte de la Biblia, es una herejía poner a un lado donde dice en efesios y la armadura de Dios para hacer practica de un doga humano que dice que utilicemos las armas de satanas para ir contra el mismo. Ejemplo, cuando excusan el Death metal "Cristiano" su manera de cantar las mismas veces que representan maldad etc ( Yo vengo de ese mundo de metal pesado) se como es eso. También supuestamente "Evangelizar" disfrazados siendo parte y celebrando hallowen y asi pare de contar como parte de la Apostasia que se tiene que dar.
wow.. thanks a lot sharing the song! this is the first song i learnt on the guitar. :) strange how thrs only one cover of this super song on the whole of youtube. wanted to see ppl play it more. anyways thanks a lot!! Merry Christmas to all of you!
@MissSugma18 Yeah, Petra´s songs were also very important in my English learning process, I used to sit down with an English dictionary by my side and translate their songs bcuz I wanted to know so badly what the lyrics were about =) I SALUTE Y´ALL PETRA FANS! KEEP ON ROCKING FOR THE ROCK, OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST!!
I listen to PETRA since the 80's and I have all their records. They have been a fundamental part of my life since I was a child when I heard them for the first time.
[Based on Romans 7:19] Late one night I heard a knock at the door The boys were really painting the town I was just another bored teenage boy Kickin' up and actin' the clown... Yeah One dare led to another dare Then things were getting out of control We hopped the fence and we stole the pears And I threw away a part of my soul Yes, I threw away a part of my soul (now it's) [Chorus] Haunting me how I stole those pears 'Cause I loved the wrong Even though I knew a better way Not for hunger or poverty It was more than pears that I ended up throwin' away... Yeah Time goes by - now I'm old and grey Those pears are just a memory I would gladly pay all I have today But that's just not the problem you see... ('cause it's) [Chorus] [Bridge:] Why do we love all the things that are wrong Forbidden fruit has a strange siren song Why do we do what we don't want to do When we live with regrets our whole lifethrough [Repeat Chorus] And I don't even like pears that well
I started listening at age 10. I was drinking coka cola at around 8pm on a January night in 1992. My sister put I love the lord on the stereo and I was enjoying it while jumping up and down on the sofa. It was fun and ever since then, up until now at age 40 I'm still listening.

[…] Había en la vecindad de nuestra viña un peral cargado de frutas que no eran apetecibles ni por su forma ni por su color. Fuimos, pues, muchachos perversos, a sacudir el peral durante la media noche, ya que hasta esta hora tardía habíamos alargado, según nuestra mala costumbre, nuestros juegos. Nos llevamos varias cargas grandes, pero no para comer las peras nosotros, sino para echárselas a los puercos. Y si algunas peras probamos, lo hicimos sólo por el gusto de hacer lo que estaba prohibido. Éste es, pues, Dios mío, mi corazón; el mismo corazón al que otorgaste tu misericordia cuando se hallaba en lo más profundo del abismo. Que él te confiese qué era lo que andaba yo buscando cuando era gratuitamente malo, pues para mi malicia no había otro motivo que la malicia misma. Era detestable, pero la amé; amé mi perdición, amé mi defecto. Y lo que amé no era el objeto por el que cometía el defecto, sino el defecto en sí mismo. Alma llena de torpezas, alma que se soltaba de tu firme apoyo encaminada rumbo al exterminio, sin otra finalidad en la ignominia que la ignominia misma […] "Confesiones - St. Agustín"
whether or not Christian Songs, they have subliminal messages, but the fact is that If they affect you, simply Don't hear them anymore. There are christian songs that apparently they're very spiritual(maybe the ones which your pastor hears) and they have a negative messages. ¿What do you think bro?
Bob Hartman, the author of most of their songs, did Bible study for years. Most of them went to Bible College. So, I am not too surprised that they read Augustine "Confessions". I don't think I have read it, myself. They mainly ministered to folks that the organized church could not reach.
@@charlesharrison7705 I think most "Pet-heads" (Petra fans) were people who were completely unchurched, heard Petra's music, then confessed, repented, and began to live a new life as followers of Jesus as a result. The enduring legacy of Petra as a band was their willingness to take Jesus' message "Back to the Street" as they titled one of their songs: don't sing songs for people in church, because they're not the ones whom Jesus is searching for (they're already "in", so to speak). The heroin addict, the alcoholic teenager, the single parent trying to hold everything together, the disgraced pastor, the cynic, the vicious business owner...those are the folks Jesus is searching for and sending guys like the Petra band members out to find and give the invitation to.
Jesus will find a way....even if your not in love His love shows up/! Glory to God we lean on righteousness. We do not have to earn it! shh it is a secret! ugh! you either know there is a living God or a god of stone and the like....
its 2024 and am still listening to this marvelous song...
@@anunglaMrs-aier and here am I watching your pics 🤣
@@edmanisjm243 pagal 😂😂

This song is practically a reflection of my younger days.
I listen to PETRA since the 80's and I have all their records. They have been a fundamental part of my life since I was a child when I heard them for the first time.
Wasn’t there a song Petra sang that has ‘ you might have walked a thousand miles away but it’s one step back’ or something to that nature?
[Based on Romans 7:19]
Late one night I heard a knock at the door
The boys were really painting the town
I was just another bored teenage boy
Kickin' up and actin' the clown... Yeah
One dare led to another dare
Then things were getting out of control
We hopped the fence and we stole the pears
And I threw away a part of my soul
Yes, I threw away a part of my soul (now it's)
[Chorus]
Haunting me how I stole those pears
'Cause I loved the wrong
Even though I knew a better way
Not for hunger or poverty
It was more than pears that I ended up
throwin' away... Yeah
Time goes by - now I'm old and grey
Those pears are just a memory
I would gladly pay all I have today
But that's just not the problem you
see... ('cause it's)
[Chorus]
[Bridge:]
Why do we love all the things that are wrong
Forbidden fruit has a strange siren song
Why do we do what we don't want to do
When we live with regrets our whole lifethrough
[Repeat Chorus]
And I don't even like pears that well
God loves Petra forever!!🙏
Yeah.. we miss them!!! Good band ever!!! Love Petra...
Not tired of listening... anyone 2018?

Sounds like they actually bothered to read Augustine "Confessions" to compose this song. Cool.
they did not compose it. i think it was a pastor or something
