The Ultimate Hero

Below are lyrics to Skillets song "Hero" and it talks about how we are just normal people but are faced with challenges and we need a hero. This has been the theme of most of the class. We are all faced with a problem and need saving. This song obviously talks about God being the hero, but can be taken in a more literal sense, also.  Life is not all butterflies and flowers, it is hard work and not always the greatest at times, but we need to have something to believe it, have hope that someone will be there to save us. We need something or someone to look up to and trust in....
"Hero"

I'm just a step away
I'm just a breath away
Losin' my faith today

I am just a man
Not superhuman
Someone save me from the hate

It's just another war
Just another family torn
Just a step from the edge
Just another day in the world we live

I need a hero to save me now
I need a hero 

 I need a hero to save my life
A hero'll save me 
I've gotta fight today
To live another day
Speakin' my mind today

I've gotta make a stand
But I am just a man
My voice will be heard today

It's just another war
Just another family torn
It's just another kill
The countdown begins to destroy ourselves


I need a hero to save my life
I need a hero just in time
Save me just in time
Save me just in time

Who's gonna fight for what's right
Who's gonna help us survive
We're in the fight of our lives

Who's gonna fight for the weak
Who's gonna make 'em believe
I've got a hero 

 Livin' in me

I'm gonna fight for what's right
Today I'm speaking my mind
And if it kills me tonight

A hero's not afraid to give his life
A hero's gonna save me just in time

I need a hero
Who's gonna fight for what's right
Who's gonna help us survive

I need a hero
Who's gonna fight for the weak
Who's gonna make 'em believe
I need a hero
I need a hero

A hero's gonna save me just in time
