HOLDING OUT FOR A HERO

 

A hero, a myth a legend

An idea? A tale or fable

With a grain of truth

And come the time

He will be there

At the right time

To rescue us all

What hero?

A name gently whispered on the breeze

Or shouted on the wind

Arthur? Robin? Horatio?

Heroes all

Our real hero, neither myth or legend

Not an idea or tale or fable

But is the truth

And come the time

He will be there

At the right time

To rescue us from ourselves

A name gently whispered in reverence

And shouted in rejoicing

A name embedded in our souls

Our Lord God
