Petra stopped by the CCM Cafe and gave us this special acoustic medley of songs over their 50 year career! The guys are currently touring on their 50th anniversary reunion tour.
Wow. I never grew up as a Christian so I had no idea of who Petra is. I found their channel just recently and I wish I had found them in my twenties. I am now 55 years old, but I am a child of God. Praise Him for His mercy and grace.
This was a HUGE part of my youth experience and so thankful for these guys! The music touched a generation and my 4 sons got to experience it all as well! The best part is no matter what age you are , one day we will be all together in glory and singing to the one who more then deserves the glory!! Love you guys and THANK YOU!
53 yr old who grew up listening to you guys. What a blessing and thanks for your hard work. Best memory is my best friend and I camping out several summers in the backyard and listening to the More Power to Ya and Not of this World so much we wore out the tapes. Early 80's was special partly because of this band.
Thank you PETRA to all of you and to everyone who ever had a part in making PETRA possible. Your music has been a guiding light to my soul for my entire adult life. There is not a single song of yours that I am not familiar with and I still listen to them daily. I never get tired of listening to them. God really did anoint you guys to play his music and for that we were all blessed. Being in the same age group as most of you, I count myself so fortunate to have experienced the entire lifespan of the original band called PETRA. I do, however, firmly believe that the music produced by PETRA will carry on long after all of us are gone. I have No Doubt about that. God Bless PETRA and long live their music. Praise The Lord.
And now I'm crying again. I am enduring dramatic life changes and having a difficult time. Every day is a struggle, each moment is a battle to keep from crying. Thank you for giving me some tears of comfort. The music of Petra, carrying the message of God's love in Jesus Christ, has brought me through awful moments. Congratulations on fifty years! God bless you all.
John's voice is still fantastic. This band's music is legendary. These are great, First Love, Homeless Few, No Doubt, Love, and Prayer, and Hand on my Heart were always some of my favorites.
When I was younger (much younger) this was just really cool music. Now that I have a few more years and miles on my life, it means much much more. Praise Jesus, they're still singing.
Hello Petra. You will never know the impact you and Petra have had in my life, and still do. Wanna tell you that i cannot wait to see you all in heaven. Until then, keep rolling boys. 🤩😍😍🤩🛐🙋🏼♀️🙌 and rocking 🤣🤣🤣🙋🏼♀️🇿🇦🇿🇦
I can’t believe I just met the band as they toured Canada (Winnipeg). May God bless them and protect them as they continue to spread the message of salvation
It's always interesting to hear John sing Greg's songs. But probably the best version of this medley is from the Farewell tour where there were actually both John and Greg and traded vocals on respective songs. That was actually a very powerful moment having both main voices of Petra singing together.
Such a blessing to come across this tonight! Beautiful walk down memory lane. To God be the glory! Thank you for the music, the message and the memories, Petra!❤️
It is so Awesome to see Petra performing again. I play drums for a Christian rock band. These guys were playing Christian rock when preachers and pastors were saying you can’t use rock with Christian lyrics. Well they have reached thousands of people that no one else could. God bless these guys!!!
Los mejores de la historia, Dios, gracias por levantar a Petra y hacerlos prevalecer hasta el día de Hoy, que tu mano sea sobre ellos y sus familias!!!
Following Petra from Brazil since the early 90ths... Blessings reached from The Most High by listening to such anointed music!! God Bless John, Bob, Greg and all the crew!!
You guys were such a blessing to me in my early faith journey back in the early 90s, and your bold proclamation of the truth of God's Word has always been an inspiration. "No Doubt" in particular got me through a rough time in my life. May God bless each of you as you have blessed others with your words and music!
your music has been such a beautiful part of my life since i was a teen (that was a LONG time ago) thanks for the blessings and the duet with Dan Vasc also
Truly my all time favorite band ❤... every song is a Bible study !!! THANK YOU PETRA for staying true to the Lord and in your lyrics !!! Happy 50th !!!!
Brought tears to my eyes. You guys will never really know how much your music impacted countless lives, mine included. THANK YOU for blessing us with it!
FIRST OF ALL how awesome it is to see Greg Bailey on chello! He has been with Petra for the last 20 years! I will see Petra in Oklahoma on Sunday, Petra concert number 5 for me (97,98,01,05).
Memories of when I was a new inmigrantes in BC Canada in late 80s I heard Petra in English and Spanish. One of my favourite is My first love and the colouring song
Wow! It’s 2024 now I’m seeing this. I love Petra. I saw you live in Colorado right after your voice surgery. You drank coke before every session and you are still singing! Love you! Been a fan forever!
Los quiero con todo mi corazón mi familia mis padres nos encanta la música y cuando encontramos a Petra fue lo mejor las canciones inspiradas por Dios saludos desde Perú
Bob Hartman is one of my guitar heroes. Saw them live with Greg X in the 80's. Fabulous concert with an amazing message. Love all albums but nowadays I listen mostly to Jekyll and Hyde. God Bless this band, this ministry! Enter In is one of my all time favorite songs.
My every year, every month and every day walk daily for every situation to fall back one of the songs from all the wonderful albums through the last 48yrs of my life. God Bless!! Well done you good and faithful servants!!
