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 common teaching that "you never know" does not jive with the confidence that both God and His Son tell us to have. This song tries to instill confidence.
Lyrics
(v.1) IF what a shaky word on which to build your life. IF was not a word used very much by Jesus Christ. IF can leave you full of doubt IF is not what God’s about If we’ll just stop saying IF we will see great benefit. (c) Jesus removed all of the if’s He took away the uncertainty The only if left is up to you and me The only if left is “If we believe.” Jesus removed all of the if’s. (v.2) Jesus taught his followers how simple it is to believe. Don’t let IF into your heart and what you say you will receive. So with this formula for success why sit we here accepting less? Why do we aim so low when there is so far that we can go? (c) Jesus removed all of the if’s He took away the uncertainty The only if left is up to you and me The only if left is “If we believe.” “If we believe.” Jesus removed all of the if’s. (v.3) Begging and wishing with stress and strain that’s not believing anything. Relaxed and calm and confidant that’s the believing that we want. (c) Jesus removed all of the if’s He took away the uncertainty The only if left is up to you and me The only if left is “If we believe.” “If we believe.” Jesus removed all other if’s.
