Not really old enough to remember Greg X. Volz when he was actually with Petra (I think he left in '85, so I would have been 4). So, in terms of songs of his that I like the best (in no order):

Adonai (BTTR)
It Is Finished
Hollow Eyes
Clean (BTTR)
Grave Robber

Okay, narrowing down to the top 5 is harder than I thought it'd be! So I'm going to cheat a bit and give my top 6! Adonai is probably my all-time favorite Petra song, and the last two I'd say are tied for fifth place...those in the middle are in no particular order. And these are all based on original recordings.

Adonai
Rose Colored Stained Glass Windows
Chameleon
For Annie
Praise Ye The Lord / It Is Finished

Judas' Kiss
More Power To Ya
Rose Colored Stain Glass Windows
Beat The System
The Coloring Song

Honorable Mention: The River Is Rising and Dream On from his solo albums.

As with John, this is far from a complete list, but I connected with these songs in a special way.

It's brutally difficult to just pick five. If you asked me tomorrow, my choices might be slightly different.

Adonai
It is Finished
Grave Robber
Rose Colored Stain Glass Windows

Pretty much all the songs on Jekyll and Hyde are good.
