Hero
Abandon Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
He said ?come follow me? and they came
A face like all the rest
But something was different
The Son of God would lead the way
And soon they all would say
There He goes - a hero. A savior to the world
With love He gave His life so we could be free
The Savior of the world
He spoke with clarity. Walked across the sea
A single word would calm the storm
His touch could heal the sick, but He was called a hypocrite
Laid behind the stone. His death was shortly mourned, he left the curtain torn
There He goes - a hero. A savior to the world
Here He stands with scars in His hands
With love he gave His life so we could be free
The Savior of the world
He choose to take the cross. Shed tears for the lost, the broken, and the needy
Forgiving those who were and will be
The angel made it clear. He told them have no fear
He?s not here. He?s not here!
There He goes - The Hero. The Savior to the world
Here He stands with scars in His hands
With love He gave his life so we could be free
The Savior of the world. The Savior of the world, the Savior of the world

Since I started high school, I've come across songs with christian values. I'm in college right now and when I look back, I know that He was always with me.
