The Greatest Hero

A hero is not about just being a man, woman, or child;
A hero is one in which God enfold's within His Hand!
One in which there are many memories-
                              Of pain, deserted by friends, even-
                                         HIS own homeland.
A hero is one who see's beyond
                                                         The Circumstances
                                 And look's Upward!
                                           HIS heart being drawn
by the ONE who shed His Blood.         
                                                                              THEN-
HE rose again on the third day!
A hero is a friend to the fatherless, the needy
                                  the castaways, the drug addicts,
Those who need God to unfold His Heart 
                                  before them.
                Alleluiah!!!                             Alleluiah!!!
A hero is always the one in whom
                                   you oft times will never ever know.
                                   -Selah
