A world full of madness
Nothing makes good sense
So many angry
Everybody's trying to win
How can I make it'
Will I survive'
Who can I run to'
Where can I hide'

I need a Hero'someone to come and rescue me
A Hero' always there to set me free
A Hero' someone to be by my side
Always there to hold my hand
Always a Hero

So on and on the violence goes
There's war on every side
peace and love cannot be found
There's no where to hide
Some place their trust in strength
And others in their king
But when the mighty fall
To whom will they cling'

I need a Hero'someone to come and rescue me
A Hero' always there to set me free
A Hero' someone to be by my side
Always there to hold my hand
Always a Hero

(Born a man upon the earth) So my Hero came and lived
(Paid my debt upon the cross) And then my Hero died
(Left for dead in a borrowed tomb) But He came to life again
To give me life

I need a Hero'someone to come and rescue me
A Hero' always there to set me free
A Hero' someone to be by my side
Always there to hold my hand
Always a Hero
