This beautiful song brings tears to my eyes everytime i hear it. When i lost my 15yr old son in he's sleep, i had the words recited at he's funeral. Our Lord truly gives us the hope to continue on when our souls are broken. 😢❤
Two Coats & Two Rootbeers...I agree. It seems, to me, at least, that so many newer songs have no recognizable tune. I can’t hum or whistle or sing to them. Just chords and words but no hook. These older songs had so much more to them.
U right Bro, many bands fear to say Jesus Christ' s name in its lyrics, today we can't find difference between their songs and love songs. God bless u and stay right to the end.
My wife and I listened to this today after the Holy Spirit brought it to my memory, her baby brother just died friday in an auto accident, he was a Surgeon on the way to the hospital. My wife has never heard this and it brought her immediate comfort. Thank You.
When I was a rebel youth in the early 80s, Petra, Servant, & other Christian bands got my attention. When I wouldn't listen to traditional music, Petra spoke to me. I want this song played at my funeral. In fact, play a bunch of Petra with my photo montage! Praise the Lord, I am saved! Oh death! Where is your sting?! John 3:16 John 14:6.
No one has ever had permission to take or take my husbands life protect by and Jesus Christ and belongs to the Lord and Yvette Castaneda DEA call me I have a winning hand If I Don't See His face and her husband I Will charge you without a doubts everything crimes that you have commit against me and the United States of America
When I was a teen back in the day, my then boyfriend and his roommate had the first Christian radio show in Dallas/Fort Worth (since we were dating, I was part of it too). They paid the station $50/hr. and I answered the phones, got to go to the concerts, etc. For a teenage girl, that was amazing! Petra was one of the first we got to go see, and I was hooked! All these years later, I still am hooked on their music, and will definitely have this played at my funeral (if there is one). God truly gifted Greg and the team with powerful voices, singing powerful messages that all need to hear! We also played Servant, Resurrection Band, Carman, and many others. It was only a couple hours a week, but we had over 100,000 listeners from as far away as Oklahoma City! It was truly the highlight of my teen years, besides marrying the love of my life.
All of their songs are based on scripture and biblical truth!!! Years ago I had people confront me saying they didn't believe in ROCK MUSIC... My reply was neither do I but I do believe in Jesus Christ!!! So many judgemental people looking at others instead of cleaning their own closet and worried about the speck in somebody's eye when they got a beam sticking out of their own eye!!!! Thanks Petra and other bands like you all. So much great music; the message of Christ most importantly and the many positive memories!!!!
Petra was the first Christian music that helped me understand what the old Hymns were talking about. I love both types and use them, like using King James sometimes and NIV at other times. God works through many different means to reach many different people!
G Daniel my favourite version of the bible is the nkjv (new king james version). It’s still king James, but easy to understand like the niv (but without anything being left)
G Daniel Right on. In my youth, I was angry & confused. I would've ignored Christian music altogether back then, if it hadn't been for Petra & Servant. I was in h.s. when Petra released their first album. My brothers & I loved it!
@@JulezandChris That's what I thought too, but my husband showed me it's actually not the same. There are many errors in it! They change words, leave some out, and put others in. If you do a search for Michael Pearl, please watch his study of Romans. He goes through the KJV verse by verse, word by word, and proves the differences are life changing! Although I find it's easier to read the NKJV, the KJV is the most correct version from the Greek texts. Revelation 22:18-21 says "For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: (19) And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book. (20) He which testifieth these things saith, "Surely, I come quickly". Amen. Even so, come Lord Jesus. (21) The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
This is a very comforting song- even for those who understand the truth of death. I lost my dad, who had a very big stroke nearly two years ago. He passed away on November 16Th, 2019- just before the PLANdemic hit. This song still gives me comfort. Thank you for this video/song. May the remaining people who were part of the Petra band- be truly Blessed.
This song brings tears to my eyes, when I think of the victory we have in Jesus! May God continue to bless Petra with inspirational songs like this one.
Greg has a wonderful voice God has truly blessed him can't wait to sing with all these wonderful saints in heaven the sound we will make UNITED in one voice praising our lord and savior JESUS
There's a step that we all take alone An appointment we have with the great unknown Like a vapor this life is just waiting to pass Like the flowers that fade, like the withering grass But life seems so long and death so complete And the grave an impossible potion to cheat But there's One who has been there and still lives to tell There is One who has been through both heaven and hell And the grave will come up empty-handed the day Jesus will come and steal us away Where is the sting, tell me where is the bite When the grave robber comes like a thief in the night Where is the victory, where is the prize When the grave robber comes And death finally dies Many still mourn and many still weep For those that the love who have fallen asleep But we have this hope though our hearts may still ache Just one shout from above and they all will awake And in the reunion of joy we will see Death will be swallowed in sweet victory Where is the sting, tell me where is the bite When the grave robber comes like a thief in the night Where is the victory, where is the prize When the grave robber comes And death finally dies When the last enemy is done from the dust will come a song Those asleep will be awakened - not a one will be forsakened He shall wipe away our tears - He will steal away our fears There will be no sad tomorrow - there will be no pain and sorrow Where is the sting, tell me where is the bite When the grave robber comes like a thief in the night Where is the victory, where is the prize When the grave robber comes And death finally Where is the sting, tell me where is the bite When the grave robber comes like a thief in the night Where is the victory, where is the prize When the grave robber comes And death finally dies
We have authority as believers. Jesus lives in you so you can do what He did. It only takes church and theology to kill The Word of God. Move His Word. Speak it as Jesus did. Be the Vine!
I listened to Petra for years loved this song who would have known I was to lose my daughter to soon as a young age of forty six , my loving Father was preparing me for the most heartbreaking time in my life 🙏💔
My favorite song of Petra. Brings back memories of watching them in concert in college. Only suggestion to those that do lyric vids, check spelling. Such a beautiful video and song would have been even more beautiful with some misspellings corrected.
Se nota que esta canción está muy bien hecha, se ve el esfuerzo y dedicación de todos los que contribuyen a estas canciones. Me encantan vuestras canciones, ojalá no dejéis de hacer esto. Pero lo mejor es que lo hacéis por Jesús, gracias por leer este comentario.
thanks for posting this video. Well done with the slides and lyrics. Because I heard it first, I still prefer the arrangement of the original from their "Not of This World" album, but the song is powerful. Bob Hartman was truly a messenger of God in song ... just pure Bible in the lyrics of his songs and simply outstanding scores for the tunes to carry God's Word. His work remains a primary reason I know as much of the Bible as I do ... by "Hartman." :) Again, thanks for this video. God bless you and yours. MARANATHA!!!
this threw me too, didn't sound like GXV. But upon further research I found that this IS GXV! Just a much older version. This is a live cut from the Classic Petra album. Look in the suggested videos for this song and i’ll bet you find the video of the performance. Like most things, the one you grew up on is the one you prefer.
I had this song played at my father's funeral. And for a moment in time smiles and tears peacefully co-existed on my face.
This beautiful song brings tears to my eyes everytime i hear it. When i lost my 15yr old son in he's sleep, i had the words recited at he's funeral. Our Lord truly gives us the hope to continue on when our souls are broken. 😢❤
I wish modern Christian bands were more like this, with the meaningful lyrics, beautiful instrumentals, and vocals full of emotion!
Two Coats & Two Rootbeers...I agree. It seems, to me, at least, that so many newer songs have no recognizable tune. I can’t hum or whistle or sing to them. Just chords and words but no hook. These older songs had so much more to them.

@@vemrs So very true. Can't tell the difference between the so called Believers and the world. God said be either hot or cold, not lukewarm.
Enthusiasm.
AMEN TO THAT!
My all-time favorite Petra song... I can't wait until this prophecy becomes truth!!!
I like the Coloring song too

"Back to the rock", it's a remastered album from 2011

When are we going to hear some good ole Leslie Phillips Worship?
He didn't say Where is the glory? at the end. You got that lyric wrong. He simply repeated Where is the prize?
Easily one of my new favorite songs.
Minha banda preferida a30 anos
Great job!
I enjoyed this.
If they be for us... then they are not against us
Could you fix the last part? It says Grabe Robber. Needs to be Grave Robber. Thank you for arranging the music to the beautiful pictures.
Thank you, I will try....

can u tell me what is the meaning of "from the dust will come a song"????
I think is a way to say that God will create something new from something destroyed, something made dust,
sureshm kumar Adam and eve
that is the resurrection! He will raise the body of the believer from the dust and reunite his spirit :)
Amen! Hallelujah!To God be the glory forever and ever!
