The Lyrics

Here's how I imagine the music video: A homeless woman finds a discarded gospel tract on the street, reads it, and asks the Lord Jesus to save her. After thinking for a minute, she stands up and starts singing as she runs from person to person to spread the word.
Where have all the Christians gone?
Why don't they preach the cross?
Where's the street-preach witnesses to warn and guide the lost?
Cuz without the gospel, they'll burn in fiery hell
So tonight I'm running around looking for someone to tell

I have a hero
I trusted Jesus the hero and He saved me tonight
He died for my sins
and He rose from the dead
and He's soon coming back for a fight

I've got a hero
Lord Jesus Christ is a hero and a shining light
His prophecy's sure
and His scripture is pure
and His precious blood washed my soul white
washed my soul white

Getting close to midnight
Still these sinners trust themselves
People seem beyond my reach
and no one seems afraid of hell
Jesus is the truth and the truth can make you free
What does it take for prideful men to get down on their knees?

I have a hero
I trusted Jesus the hero and He saved me tonight
He died for my sins
and He rose from the dead
and He's soon coming back for a fight

I've got a hero
Lord Jesus Christ is a hero and a shining light
His prophecy's sure
and His Bible is pure
and His precious blood washed my soul white

I have a hero
I'm trusting Jesus the hero who gives eternal life

The God that made the earth and heavens above
and that for Moses split the sea
That's the same God who suffered, bled, and died for me
On the cross, took my sins and the pain
Pulled my soul from the mud
Now I won't go to hell, cuz I'm washed in His blood
(saved from fire by the blood)
(saved from fire by the blood)
(saved from fire by the blood)
(saved from fire by the blood)

I have a hero
Have faith in Jesus the hero and He'll save you tonight
He died for your sins
and He rose from the dead
and He's soon coming back for a fight

I've got a hero
Lord Jesus Christ is a hero and a shining light
His prophecy's sure
and His Bible is pure
and His precious blood washed my soul white

I have a hero
Believe on Jesus the hero and He'll save you tonight
He died for your sins
and He rose from the dead
and He's soon coming back for a fight

[chorus repeats as song fades out]
Proverbs 21:4 "...a proud heart...is sin." 1 John 5:17a "All unrighteousness is sin..." 1 John 1:8a "If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves..." Romans 3:23a "For all have sinned..." Luke 16:22-24 "...the rich man...died...And in hell...he cried and said...I am tormented in this flame." Romans 6:23a "For the wages of sin is death..." Revelation 20:14b "...the lake of fire...is the second death." No amount of good deeds can make up for the bad things we've done. Isaiah 64:6a "...we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags..." You can never be good enough to get to heaven. Psalm 39:5b "...every man at his best state is altogether vanity..." But the Lord Jesus never sinned. 1 Peter 2:21-22 "...Christ...did no sin..." John 1:1 "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." 1 John 5:7 "For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one." John 1:14 "...the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us..." 1 John 3:5b "...he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin." 1 Peter 3:18a "...Christ...suffered for sins, the just for the unjust..." 1 John 3:16a "Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us..." Romans 1:16b "...the gospel of Christ...is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth..." 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 "...I declare unto you the gospel...that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day..." Ephesians 1:5-7 "...Jesus Christ...In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace..." Ephesians 2:8-9 "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast." Romans 10:8-9 "...the word of faith...That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved." Ask the Lord Jesus Christ to save you now! Romans 10:13 "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." In John 10:28, Jesus promised, "I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand." Questions? www.biblebelievers.com/churches
