Man, this band was my introduction to Christian rock... I've loved them ever since... This songs brings back memories... Thanks por posting these songs, and live! Thanks!
God Bless Stryper, and other bands, preachers, and everyday average Joe's who find a way to honestly share the love of God in their lives. People can bash and trash all they want, but the Truth... the One that the world wants to dilute... It will shine on. YOU CANNOT DILUTE GOD. you or i can no more say the Truth is a lie anymore than we good go outside and tell the sun at noonday to turn off its light. ONLY GOD has that power, and that very God loves us while we try to deny Him...
this is the most legendary of all christian rock bands. they paved the way for todays christian rock. they are far from wannabes.. these Guys were on the top of the charts and mtv in their heyday
@rexhickey i have found that "old, sad, bleary" music at church is that way because the person participating in it either hasn't read the songs to understand the songs or doesn't believe in the message the songs were written to convey. i agree that stryper is a great band. i haev listened to them for years and still do! :) but just because a song comes out of a hymnal doesn't make it old sad and bleary. god bless. glad to have you as brother in christ.
Rock'n Roll is the free spirit music, so why should we criticize Christian Heavy Metal? If you feel you are full of anger and rage you show it through your music, but in the same way if your heart is full of Christianity Why don't show it too? Stryper is a fantastic band, great singer, great drummer, and guitars, pure heavy metal. Thats all we need and, yes beautyful lyrics, full of love in a world full of hate, and my friends, that is great!! - Jesus is my Lord God bless you all!!!
Yes that Tim on bass and yes, you are listening to one of the best male vocalist of all time. Michael sweet can sing, play, and write music like nobody else.
People have the right to believe what ever they want and listen to whatever they want, no one is forcing anything, if you don't believe in it don't, you don' t have to listen to it. It's your choice, that's why it's called free will...
Truly a magnificent song Jesus God in the flesh lived the life we couldnt,called us his friends,died on the cross,shed his blood 2 pay the price 4 our sins...in da hope that we choose wisely by giving our life 2 him who loved us...luv diz song!
This is one of my favorites by the dudes in yellow and black. It gives you the gospel - Jesus was more than a man - God in the flesh and gave himself up to die on the cross for our sins. Any one who asks will receive..Jesus in their heart....Plus it totally rocks. I remember back in the day I had a T-shirt that said...Jesus Christ rocks! Its not just religion its a relationship with the living God through Christ!
Dude, Just got an 88 edition of Metal Magazine. These dude had a huge color section! So stop saying they arent metal. They just happen to be Christians that made awesome 80s metal.
It amuses me. Also, it poses an interesting question regarding Christian co-opting of something that they themselves labelled expressly anti-Christian.
today i just got delivered from evil spirits that were tormenting my mind, and pretty much making rebellious and making me hate myself and everyone else , i was very self destructive, Praise God it's gone
I think the video is not 100%, the compression is not good and there's a delay on image - sound. But if you're talking about the singer, he's great, wacht the others video of this band, please.
@rexhickey Amen... what God uses to reach lost souls is his business...I belive he is trying to save as many as he can..he loves us that much , he has children in every walk of life.
I'm not sure where Stryper is now but what they did took courage, because they must have known many would hate them because of the message. Anger in metal seems to be more in vogue these days. Too much anger.
Well, I think it's hard to explain it. But there's only one God: John 1: " In {the} beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the WORD WAS GOD." Jonh 14a: "And the WORD BECAME FLESH, and dwelt among us" Then the WORD is JESUS and JESUS is GOD! The Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost is just one GOD.
@TheSlipknotdude69 Hi Skdude. God isn't at all picky about who fights for Him.The only power any of His warriors have is when we allow the Holy Spirit to fight through us. The Lord Jesus Christ defeated satan at the resurrection and we are fighting the last stages of a ferocious war of which the outcome has already been decisively determined. It's amazing to see the spiritual power behind metal music,isn't it?
It's an interesting conundrum...I mean, I get the idea. Metalheads, who are by definition lost to Satan and such, discover Stryper and are saved. However, I worry about the other way around. Christians, discover Stryper, then discover the rest of heavy metal, and they're stuck in the aforementioned Satan-lost situation. It'd be ironic if it tuns out that Stryper "lost" more people than it saved. Ah well. So glad I'm Jewish.
Not a rocker, b ut I dig. I love the message of this song cuz Jesus was more than a man. It's because of him that I've been set freer than the freest free:) !
Funny, I cry bullshit on your reading capacity. Inspiration, if not flat out influence. Inspired by Strypers example of punchy hard rock with a thinking persons message. Not your cup of tea? Stay on the Believer pages, they are awesome, too.
@Mailrobot Buddy, God is everywhere... the breathe you take, the fish you eat, and every step you take. Whatever your faith, Jesus said "just believe... in yourself." Enjoy the song!
I know that some religions sells "keys to heaven" literally, how could I know that you weren't talk about this? And what do you know about servility to God? "No longer do I give you the name of servants; because a servant is without knowledge of what his master is doing: I give you the name of friends, because I have given you knowledge of all the things which my Father has said to me." Jo 15:15
Thats cool, I am what they call in the states a nondenominational, lol, otherwise just known as a Christian. I thought your "arse" comment was to be slightly jest, but when I looked at your profile, I realized you are actually United Kingdom, lol. I added you as a friend, we can email more directly.
No I think he's commenting that it is kinda corny. As an original fan who bought their first cassette as a teen in the 80's and who puts them on his MP3 player over 20 years later, I certainly am a big fan. But this is a corny song, probably put together as a filler for the album. The chords are awesome, wish there was a karaoke version out there.
Well, I'll respect your opinion, but you listened a song recorded live, and the sound quality it's not the best. Do you know other song of this band? And Stryper plays a diferent kind of music of Manowar. It's hard to compare. But as I told before, it's your opinion and I'll respect it.
@JohnQuincyAdams1 and what is not wise about it? do you have a secondary proposal? or are you one of those people that think that believing anything is dumb? lol
dear shaliakhYeshai- That is the only way HE could be God in a Human Body, then to LIVE a Sinless life - not one sin he did. He kept looking to God as a Father to show us that he was humble. Not puffed up with pride. He had to follow the prophesies that HE wrote. Once dead- HE went to HELL- YES JEWS there is a Hell, and HE-God Went there in Human man's place
Man, this band was my introduction to Christian rock... I've loved them ever since... This songs brings back memories... Thanks por posting these songs, and live! Thanks!
Oz Fox , one of the most talented , UNDER-apreciated guitarists of all time !
STRYPER IS A GREAT BAND WITH A LOT OF TALENT I REMEMBER SEEING THEM AT THE TOWER THEATRE TO HELL WITH THE DEVIL CONCERT IN 1986 Great concert.
God Bless Stryper, and other bands, preachers, and everyday average Joe's who find a way to honestly share the love of God in their lives. People can bash and trash all they want, but the Truth... the One that the world wants to dilute... It will shine on.

this is the most legendary of all christian rock bands. they paved the way for todays christian rock. they are far from wannabes.. these Guys were on the top of the charts and mtv in their heyday
This song pointed me towards Christ when I was a troubled youth. I am glad Stryper is still out there. Sing away guys.
AWESOME SONG,AWESOME BAND,I JUST LOVE STRYPER,I LISTEN TO THEM EVERYDAY,UPLIFTING SONGS,THAT IS JUST WHAT WE NEED,YEAH KEEP IT UP STRYPER!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes that Tim on bass and yes, you are listening to one of the best male vocalist of all time. Michael sweet can sing, play, and write music like nobody else.
@Jarrak
In metal music, its not a symbol of satanism, its a symbol of "Holy crap, this rocks, KEEP DOING THIS!"
They really put on a good show with lots of energy. It's clear they believe the message they are spreading.
Ask the guys in Believer if they consider Stryper one of their greatest inspirations, if not flat out influence.
Show some respect.
do it! its worth every penny you spend on doing it! i saw them live in july at rocklahoma they sound the same they did years ago!
Holy Shit....This guy can still sing his ass off..Listen to those highs.
Does anyone know if this is Tim Gaines playing bass on this video? The band sounds GREAT...especially the LEAD VOCAL...I love his voice...
People have the right to believe what ever they want and listen to whatever they want, no one is forcing anything, if you don't believe in it don't, you don' t have to listen to it. It's your choice, that's why it's called free will...
CLAP, CLAP, WOO-HOO, WOO-HOO!!!!
Yeah, Michael Sweet! He nails the original notes @ 3:09 - 3:11 "&" @ 4:29 - 4:33!! AWESOME! You still got it, bro!
Truly a magnificent song Jesus God in the flesh lived the life we couldnt,called us his friends,died on the cross,shed his blood 2 pay the price 4 our sins...in da hope that we choose wisely by giving our life 2 him who loved us...luv diz song!

Thank GOD for STRYPER!..
I didn't, got halfway through but since your replaying to my comments I have to relive the nightmare, again and again.
@RatchetGUN Yes they're jamming and kicking butt w/a positive message. Love it!!
This band has more than 20 years... They aren't wannabes... THEY ARE!
Dude, Just got an 88 edition of Metal Magazine. These dude had a huge color section! So stop saying they arent metal. They just happen to be Christians that made awesome 80s metal.

Stryper is a good choice for the kids and young people meet Jesus' concepts in their minds
It amuses me. Also, it poses an interesting question regarding Christian co-opting of something that they themselves labelled expressly anti-Christian.
God Bless Stryper Christian Rock and Roll forever

muy buena esta cancion la verdad este man tiene mucha mas vos que el de iron maiden
Well, I think it's hard to explain it. But there's only one God:

It's amazing to see the spiritual power behind metal music,isn't it?
Oz Fox looks like Mick Foley.
I don't believe in God but I have been a fan of Stryper since 1986. You don't have to be a believer to enjoy the music.
It's an interesting conundrum...I mean, I get the idea. Metalheads, who are by definition lost to Satan and such, discover Stryper and are saved. However, I worry about the other way around. Christians, discover Stryper, then discover the rest of heavy metal, and they're stuck in the aforementioned Satan-lost situation. It'd be ironic if it tuns out that Stryper "lost" more people than it saved.
Ah well. So glad I'm Jewish.
thats him on bass
Not a rocker, b ut I dig. I love the message of this song cuz Jesus was more than a man. It's because of him that I've been set freer than the freest free:)

Not your cup of tea? Stay on the Believer pages, they are awesome, too.
What do you mean with "modern religion" and "the real enemy"?
@JohnQuincyAdams1 Oh no, dont come and hop on my train, fundamentalist. Im an militant atheist, and I still enjoy this song.
Jesus rocks!!
I'm sure he does...
@Mailrobot Buddy, God is everywhere... the breathe you take, the fish you eat, and every step you take. Whatever your faith, Jesus said "just believe... in yourself." Enjoy the song!
como puedo conseguir acordes y tablaturas de stryper?
i like this song (Y)
That comment made no sense. I am not religious, and I love Stryper.
I know that some religions sells "keys to heaven" literally, how could I know that you weren't talk about this? And what do you know about servility to God? "No longer do I give you the name of servants; because a servant is without knowledge of what his master is doing: I give you the name of friends, because I have given you knowledge of all the things which my Father has said to me."

I thought your "arse" comment was to be slightly jest, but when I looked at your profile, I realized you are actually United Kingdom, lol. I added you as a friend, we can email more directly.
@rexhickey Amen!
@0kill13 How do you think man? From GOD...lol...
F-A-I-L
@rexhickey well stated
unless there is.
no way dude...
@tjthegreat7 Haha That would be awesome!!!
No I think he's commenting that it is kinda corny. As an original fan who bought their first cassette as a teen in the 80's and who puts them on his MP3 player over 20 years later, I certainly am a big fan. But this is a corny song, probably put together as a filler for the album. The chords are awesome, wish there was a karaoke version out there.
заебись!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Well, I'll respect your opinion, but you listened a song recorded live, and the sound quality it's not the best. Do you know other song of this band? And Stryper plays a diferent kind of music of Manowar. It's hard to compare. But as I told before, it's your opinion and I'll respect it.
@JohnQuincyAdams1 and what is not wise about it? do you have a secondary proposal? or are you one of those people that think that believing anything is dumb? lol

@JohnQuincyAdams1 I dont prejudge fundamentalists, I judge them.
This is not the first and nor the last!
hi idol.........
