Lyrics

She's on her own, two girls at home Thirteen years just up and walked away And left her all alone With bills to pay and mouths to feed And every day she's taking care of everybody elses needs But she's finding her strength in the One love that wont ever leave her So she works and she prays and she loves and she stays cause they need her These are the heroes, just ordinary people Laying down their lives like angels in disguise They're weak but always willing They dare to do the hard things And in the dark and desperate places no one else goes You'll find the heroes You'll find the heroes He walks the halls, against the flow He sees his high school as his mission field He's broken cause he knows The hopeless road that they are taking The empty feelings they are chasing only lead to futures wasted So hes willing to stand alone He lives what he believes when they all say its not worth believing Every night on his knees, he prays God, wont You please help me reach them? These are the heroes, just ordinary people Laying down their lives like angels in disguise They're weak but always willing They dare to do the hard things And in the dark and desperate places no one else goes You'll find the heroes You'll find the heroes You may never know their names But they're moving mountains just the same Instead of searching for the spotlight They'll follow Jesus into the darkest night Heroes, these are the heroes These are the heroes, just ordinary people Laying down their lives like angels in disguise They're weak but always willing They dare to do the hard things And in the dark and desperate places no one else goes You'll find the heroes You'll find the heroes In the board room with a Bible In the classroom praying for revival In third world countries, in downtown missions
