Newsboys – Hero lyrics

[Verse 1]
I... I want to follow like a shadow
I don't need no one to see me
I just want to chase you down
I... I want to travel like an echo
I don't need no one to hear me
I just to make you loud

[Chorus]
I'm about one name, one life, one story
I'm alive to bring You glory
You took my pain
And You paid the debt I owed
I'm gonna lay me down to lift You up
You're the only King in the kingdom come
If I live, if I die, my life will show
You're my hero, hero (Oh...)
You're my hero, hero (Oh...)

[Verse 2]
Light shattering the darkness
Taking up a cross, You reached beyond my brokenness
Love overturning all the heartache
Taking on a grave and leaving death powerless, powerless

[Chorus]
I'm about one name, one life, one story
I'm alive to bring You glory
You took my pain
And You paid the debt I owed
I'm gonna lay me down to lift You up
You're the only King in the kingdom come
If I live, if I die, my life will show
You're my hero, hero (Oh...)
You're my hero, hero (Oh...)

[Verse 3]
You took the nails (I'm forgiven)
Cleared my name (Every sin is)
Washed away (It is finished)
You're the reason I'm free

[Chorus 2]
I'm about one name, one life, one story
I'm alive to bring You glory
You took my pain
And You paid the debt I owed
I'm gonna lay me down to lift You up
You're the only King in the kingdom come
If I live, if I die, my life will show
You're my hero, hero (Oh...)
Jesus, Jesus
You're my hero, hero (Oh...)
Jesus, Jesus

[Outro]
You are who You say You are
The evidence is in my heart
You are who You say You are
The evidence is in my heart
