Casting Crowns - Heroes Lyrics
She's on her own, two girls at homeThirteen years just up and walked awayAnd left her all aloneWith bills to pay and mouths to feedAnd every day shes taking care of everybody elses needsBut shes finding her strength in the One love that wont ever leave herSo she works and she prays and she loves and she stays cause they need herThese are the heroes, just ordinary peopleLaying down their lives like angels in disguiseThey're weak but always willingThey dare to do the hard thingsAnd in the dark and desperate places no one else goesYou'll find the heroesYou'll find the heroesHe walks the halls, against the flowHe sees his high school as his mission fieldHes broken cause he knowsThe hopeless road that they are takingThe empty feelings they are chasing only lead to futures wastedSo hes willing to stand aloneHe lives what he believes when they all say its not worth believingEvery night on his knees, he prays God, wont You please help me reach them?You may never know their namesBut they're moving mountains just the sameInstead of searching for the spotlightThey'll follow Jesus into the darkest nightHeroes, these are the heroesIn the board room with a BibleIn the classroom praying for revivalIn third world countries, in downtown missions
