My Hero
MY HERO
In today's society heroes abound
If one but takes the time to see
Heroes are truly all around
To provide aid to you or me
Firefighters, EMTs, and law enforcement
Medical staff in the emergency room
Giving words of encouragement
In situations filled with gloom
There's also the heroic military force
Who daily look death in the eye
They are America's freedom source
And many of them will die
But there is only one I know
Who made that ultimate sacrifice
When to the cross, He chose to go
His Name is Jesus Christ
His death on the cross was not in vain
It assured us of eternal life
Because He rose to live again
And save us from our strife
No other person, dead or alive
Can save the world from sin
So I encourage you to swallow your pride
And let the Savior come in
Into your heart where only He
Can bring you His salvation
A Hero is what He wants to be
To the world's entire population
