Stryper - God Lyrics






Oh, oh, oh, oh!

Hearts are weeping, soul’s are keeping on ice
Spirits dying, wickedness won’t suffice
Those who cared, they stop and stare at the wall
Doing nothing, watching prisoners fall

The sun is falling from the sky
The earth is cold and still

[Chorus]

God - have mercy on us
For we know not what we do
God – dark and blinded, we are burning
Without You – God!

Yeah, oh, oh!

Without conscience, without warning at all
We kill the wounded, crushing those who crawl
Can’t we see that life, is hung by a thread
In the end our flesh is buried and dead

Mountains crumble, rivers swell
The tide is taking all

[Repeat chorus]

    Muito boa música

  10. c.... ....

    These guys are very talented and I'm very glad they got past "the hair days" typical of the mid- and late 80s. They have some great songs, but I wish that they would move out of the "safe zone" more often. They've been teetering on the edge of that safe zone for a long time, and I just really wish that they would BRING SOME PAIN! I do not believe they would lose any faithful fans if they did.

    🙋 just like to say to everybody hope you all have a bless and wonderful Easter. Totally love this song right here. God is a fantastic song also I think it's Stryper best that they had ever done well besides in God we trust. Anyway the song right here God I think this should have been on in God we trust cd or it should have been on Reborn cd. I'm just saying and being honest. It doesn't matter which cd it's from the song Still rocks and it's amazingly awesome + the coldest as well.

  41. G.... V....

    Hey my brother "mindstorms44" I would not try to underestimate , or berate your life exdperiences.But if you tyuely want an answer to your questioning of Jesus' realith,than humble your heart and understand that our Lord Jesus Christ already endured all that pain you are clinging to. Release it all to him in solemn prayre, even try a fast . Read James 1:5 don't give up on Him, right now He would be carrying you!

  56. S.... V....

    Show!!!!

  57. R.... C....

  68. L.... T....

    For years I've avoided listening to this band. A few months ago I've opened up to give them a chance. I'm not big on the Christian thing but this band is great.

  69. D.... B....

    this song seriously rox

  70. M.... T....

    Razorfist sent me here

  71. P.... A....

    stryper foreveeeerrrr!!

  72. E.... G....

    In my opinion this is probably Stryper's masterpiece. Great musicianship skills and the tempo change at the end was brilliant. Nothing to envy to bands like Metallica....at all.

    E.... G....

    Yes. I'm a few years late to the party, but I had to stop by and comment bc I'm thinking about posting content on my own channel and I'm looking around for some ideas. The OP did a fine job on this vid, imo. I thought it was an official vid until about halfway in. Upvoted :)

  73. L.... A....

    Perfect music and perfect band GOD BLESS STRYPER !!

  74. R.... M....

    Stryper are so Holy Soldiers for Our Lord And Saviour Jesus Christ.What a beautiful song GOD is.Michael Sweets vocals are the best.Very talented band.AMEN

  87. A.... R....

    STRYPER ROCKS!!!!

  88. A.... C....

    OUTSTANDING!!!!!

  89. C.... C....

    what band did the original?

    C.... C....

    Stryper.. Michael Sweet wrote it.

    C.... C....

    I remember when MTV first came on and Stryper had the #1 song with "Calling On You" and "Honestly"

    C.... C....

    Yep..Great album. THWTD.. They're touring that album this fall/winter as a 30 year reunion tour... Wearing the old outfits and all.. fun...

  90. g.... ....

    Just saw Stryper in MI, and they played this song!

    g.... ....

    Where at in Michigan, I realize your statement is 6 months old, but I'm in Flint and wonder where they play here ??

    g.... ....

    shawn douglass I saw them in Battle Creek (was very crowded and HOT, but the band sounded awesome). Then I saw them a few months later in Cleveland for their THWTD anniversary concert!

  91. s.... D....

    My favorite christian rock band ! they are great and they are true to what they believe. This is true rock!

    s.... D....

    TRUE MY FRIEND

    s.... D....

    Yes. I'm not even religious, but I love the way Stryper weaves those epic narratives into their music. Good clean living has kept Sweet's voice angelic, too. It's somewhat rare to see a rock star who's not puking out his pancreas by age 50. I hope they'll continue to make music for us for a few more decades :)

  92. R.... B....

    Christian metal destroys satan music ! Very powerful! Stryper rocks for GOD!!!!

  93. J.... B....

    It is amazing at how God works. Even the haters of Christ, the Athiest, the Agnostic, and the satanist cannot stay away. Yes they like to post insults and negative things, but they are here. They are drawn to Christ and they do not even realize it. If they were true to their anti-christ convictions and beliefs, they would bot waste their time here trolling Christian based music. God wins! You are drawn to the Almighty Creator of the Universe. You cannot help yourselves, because no matter how much you think you hate Christ, you are here in this place hearing his Gospel being preached and like it or not, a seed has been planted in your hearts that Jesus is way to Salvation. You can insult, respond with hate, but you are still here.

    J.... B....

    I'm mostly agnostic, and I like this and Stryper as a whole.

    J.... B....

    @Mindstorms44 'Never good to stare into the abyss for too long, man... Godspeed.

    J.... B....

    Very well said Jeff!

    J.... B....

    Yeshua was a teacher and not only a preacher ! So be it!

    J.... B....

    Me, I just like Stryper..

  94. m.... ....

    great song. god destroyed two cities because of sin. god will not protect a nation that allows sin. he will step back and allow bad stuff to happen. a nation without god is a nation in trouble. one day all the wicked people of the world their eyes will be opened when they die, in hell they will have all their memories, their senses, and be able to look up into heaven and see the people they knew on earth that entered heaven. so they will remember the times they did not want to listem or said they didn't believe. the prophecies of the bible is happening and has happened rather you like it or not. once you get saved you no longer desire to do evil. you no longer do the bad stuff you did like cuss, or whatever. if you get saved youll stop doing whatever it is your doing wrong. you feel the spirit in your body and your eyes are open. and you will be able to understand the bible. etc. they abort babies, allow ssm, transgengered bathrooms, pornography, adult stores, etc. one day every wicked persons eyes will be opened. but we have the choice to go to heaven or hell. do we want to burn non stop for eternity. or do we want to go to a plce without sickness. don't let the devil deceive you and tell you lies. in the last days they'll call good evil. and evil good. and it talks about Russia and iran. and isis in the bible. i  think it also says there will be diseases in the last days but don't quote me on that. it also says falling away from the church and high minded people in the last days etc. just know when you get saved, you will no longer do whatever it is your doing. that's not right.  you can goto church every day but if your not saved your still going to hell. because getting saved is the only way into heaven.

    Oh my god! Do you expect anyone to read this?

    m.... ....

    amen I believe in God God bless you in your heart your soul and your body may you water be fresh and your sins will be covered in the blood of Jesus Amen

    m.... ....

    +kreuz7sieben He wasn't expecting an ignorant that doesn't knows how to read.

  95. M.... P....

    Who are the 26 jerks that didn't like this???

  96. w.... ....

    At 1:53 it is the Chain Bridge in Budapest. Greetings from Hungary. :)

  97. M.... M....

    intro theme sounds very much like Wasted Years by Iron Maiden.

    M.... M....

    exactly my same thought

  98. s.... ....

    Love this song. The covering is a great album too. They took on some big songs and nailed them.
