Picking 5 songs was really tough.  A top 100 might be more realistic. Wink

Good ones.  You're the first to pick underrated pre-Volz songs too.

Hard to pick a favorite album... based on my favorite songs, I'd probably have to say This Means War!, though the last half of the album is kind of weak (except for All the King's Horses)..

Songs (if I had to pick five):

All Fired Up
It Is Finished
Get On Your Knees And Fight Like A Man
This Means War!
He Came, He Saw, He Conquered

...really should be more than 5, but I'm getting tired lol...

Favorite color: Maybe On Fire? Hard to pick.

Favorite album: More Power To Ya w/ Never Say Die a close 2nd

Favorite songs? This is almost impossible. I listen to Petra for the lyrics as much as the music and they have so many meaningful songs it makes everything a little different. 

Today's list:

Creed
Fool's Gold
It Is Finished
Angel of Light
More Power To Ya
Bema Seat
Grave Robber
Prayer
Open Book
First Love

Favorite cover: Come And Join Us (I don't like any of their album covers really. This and "This Means War" are the only two I like artistically)
Frozen Fire

Such a great album. For me Beyond Belief and On Fire are solid beginning to end.

One of the great things about Petra is that I like different albums at different times.  Because they moved from rock to hard rock and had two different vocalists I find that I can pretty much find a song that I'd like on any given day.

Favourite song at the moment is...

Grave Robber.

I'm surprised no one mentioned "Jekyll & Hyde."  That song is the heaviest they have ever done 
and is my all-time favorite of theirs along with "Bema Seat."

Jekyll & Hyde (the song and the album) was a good comeback but still not up to par with the Schlitt glory years.  Every song on that album needed a guitar solo.  It would have turned a rushed 10-song 30-minute album into a great 10-song 40-minute album.

I also think most of On Fire was heavier than J&H too.

I second that! Never understood why people would call J&H the heaviest Petra album.
Well, this choice is a subjective one and the term "heavy" has different meaning to different people...

Somehow J&H didn't click with me. It's not bad and has good songs, but still... It's not the only reason, but I'm also missing guitar solos

I think because J&H has no true ballads.

Favorite Petra song:  "Rose Colored Stained Glass Windows" from More Power to Ya.  Bob wailed on that guitar solo, and Greg hit the vocal stratosphere on that last "so dim".  Just a stellar cut.

Favorite albums: Never Say Die, More Power to Ya, On Fire, Beyond Belief and Back to the Rock.
