One of my most popular songs. Intricate layered rhythms. Potent lyric message. When I perform it live, people quickly pick up on the hook and start singing it with me. ASCAP

Soloist. Songwriter/singer. ASCAP member. A NICE WITNESS FOR CHRIST There is an extensive interview of me done by Scott Crawford, at . Do not let the site name alarm you. It is an "adult-themed music and entertainment" site. It is not a porn site, and you will not get tagged for spam if you go there. Scott is a journalist of integrity, who asked pertinent and penetrating questions, then printed my answers verbatim. Both God and His son received much attention in the interview. REVIEWS: "Fancy keyboard playing is the backdrop for this positive and upbeat collection. Hackley's vocals are reminiscent of Burl Ives." Review by Brent Castillo, The Wichita Eagle, March 5, 2005. "world's wimpiest Christian rocker". Brother Russell Podcast; : INFLUENCES (a very lengthy list, ending with...) "and of course, Richard Hackley." "Yet the songs on the Worst of the Worst can be compelling in their awfulness. Songs like Richard Hackley's rabble-rousing, hackles-raising spiritual God's Backhand ("We're not talking about tennis or Ping-Pong!") "; "Richard Hackley... HUGE musical influence. And a real bad mofo live.";

Story behind the song
The purpose of the song is to burst many of the bubbles the world tries to build up in our minds regarding violence, money and diseases.
Lyrics
(v.1) Is there a weapon bigger than God? I don't think so. Is there a crime bigger than God? I don't think so. Is there a dead bolt bigger than God? I don't think so. Is there safety bigger than God? I don't think so. (chorus) All those things that we've learned to fear, And all those things we try to trust, They might run us over, or they might let us down, Someday they'll all go back to dust. Except for God who stands above The world at it's best and the world at its worst. So whatever life can come up with next, God is the One we should trust in first. (v.2) Is there a tax hike bigger than God? I don't think so. Is there a market crash bigger than God? I don't think so. Is there a bank account bigger than God? I don't think so. Is there a lottery bigger than God? I don't think so. (chorus) (v.3) Is there a germ bigger than God? I don't think so. Is there a virus bigger than God? I don't think so. Is there a medicine bigger than God? I don't think so. Is there a health plan bigger than God? I don't think so. (chorus)
