Love this song! Listened to this song playing in the parents station wagon, here in Australia, in the 80’s. Has timeless Kingdom principles . I am proud to say my 8-18 year olds love listening to “Beat the System” CD in my car, and sing along! 🎉👏🏻
Love that Petra rocked for Jesus! My heart- I want to be a God pleaser- still a work in progress after 67 years and this song still speaks to my heart, and rocks the house! Many thanks also to guys like Larry Norman who opened the doors of the church to this wonderful genre of music! Not that hymns aren't wonderful too, but God has a vast array of tools and gifts and I am thankful for them all!
I was a teenager during this time when Christian rock was at it’s best.They were so talented and new how to write songs that ministered to us teens at that time.Now that I’m 46 it still does.😀
Feeling Euphoric , nostalgic, emotional after seeing him singing at a church on a more recent video. He came to our little church 15 yrs ago and omgsh he was so amazing. Jesus filled .. love if he had coffee with my husband and I. We'd cry so bad.
An amazing video!... And this song *"Godpleaser"* is one of Petra''s most wonderful songs!... It's only a pity that *the audio track* in this video is *monophonic* !...
I LOVE seeing these old videos!!! Brings back sooooo many memories. My uncle is Mark Kelly. To see him young again is awesome...in his moon boots!! Ha!! Thank you to whoever posted this!! =)
Unbelievable. Excellent vocals. Excellent lyrics...."No need to pat me on the back, or Stop to shake my hand. I just wanna hear my father say, "Well done, Well done".
The lyrics are so good. Wow. Words and music by Bob Hartman Based on Proverbs 14:12, Ephesians 6:6, Galatians 1:10, 1 Thessalonians 4:1, Matthew 6:2, 25:23, Colossians 3:23 So many voices telling me which way to go So many choices come from those who think they know There's a way that seems right to a man But it only brings him death I wanna go the way that leads to life Till I draw my dying breath (Chorus) Don't wanna be a manpleaser - I wanna be a Godpleaser I just want to have the wisdom to discern the two apart Don't wanna be a manpleaser - I wanna be a Godpleaser I just want to do the things that please the Father's heart Some make a sacrifice and never let it show Some make a point of letting everybody know Some will live their lives as unto men And they have their reward I just wanna do everything I do With my heart unto the Lord I just want my life to glorify His Son To make my Father proud that I'm His child before I'm done No need to pat me on the back or stop the shake my hand I just want to hear my Father say "Well done, well done" I just want to hear my Father say "Well done" Christian lyrics - GOD PLEASER LYRICS - PETRA
I went to their concert in Tulsa Ok during this tour. Me and my friend were four rows back from the stage right in front of one the speakers. Man it was an awesome experience we couldn't hear very well for a few days afterward but man it was totally worth it. This video brings it all back to me. Thanks for helping me relive a precious memory from my youth!😎
My first concert was the beat the system here in Jacksonville Florida with Gil and Jaime Gibbs at Arlington assembly of god at 88 Arlington road our youth group attended at the Jacksonville collesuem and the holy spirit and my family and my life has been touched by the working of the holy spirit through out the year I am the only member of my youth and singles Minister at the Time in the 80's women were wives of pastors and evangelist like my parents were in the navy and I have decided that if Joyce Meyer's can get her ordination rev wv Grant and liberty Christian will help my get my ordination I always wanted to go to Lakeland but my parents had to be cared for in their retirement and I took care of them with my sister and husband until they passed away in 2012 I ironically am in a rehab with COVID and can't contact my father and friends anymore before my identity has been compromised all over the nations and the world

How cool was that?
Very cool

Absolutely one of the best Chrisrian rock tunes of all time.

Love this song and Greg still belts it out today, June of 2022, as he did back then! He and the Classic Petra Resurrection band are amazing!

So many voices telling me which way to go
So many choices come from those who think they know
There's a way that seems right to a man
But it only brings him death
I wanna go the way that leads to life
Till I draw my dying breath
(Chorus)
Don't wanna be a manpleaser - I wanna be a Godpleaser
I just want to have the wisdom to discern the two apart
Don't wanna be a manpleaser - I wanna be a Godpleaser
I just want to do the things that please the Father's heart
Some make a sacrifice and never let it show
Some make a point of letting everybody know
Some will live their lives as unto men
And they have their reward
I just wanna do everything I do
With my heart unto the Lord
I just want my life to glorify His Son
To make my Father proud that I'm His child before I'm done
No need to pat me on the back or stop the shake my hand
I just want to hear my Father say "Well done, well done"
I just want to hear my Father say "Well done"
Christian lyrics - GOD PLEASER LYRICS - PETRA
This is Volz favorite Petra song because of the message !
A scriptural message in song.
I had the honor of working at the 1984 Petra concert in Duluth, MN, selling merch.
I time travelled here from the 2010 classic Petra Nashville concert!! Hallelujah!!!!
This is the first Chirstian song I learned on guitar - numbed my fingers learning how to barr-chord a "C". Good memories.

I just love the intro part so much and the whole song refresh my soul all time.
Great live performance
Love you, Petra :)
L9ve the message plus music plus volZ! That will get it done.
The best of petra 👍🏻
