Everyday Hero

Somewhere far beyond this space and time, unknown
Believe in fantasy, something you never outgrow
Never giving up, the ultimate victory
Marvel at inspiration, true humanity
We all dream, looking for heroes, on the silver screen
We can dream, searching for answers, to life’s mysteries
Over the rainbow, where the spirit and mind runs free
Castles, and fairytales, in a world of make believe
Imagination, unrestricted reality
All our hopes come true in some surreal fantasy
We all dream, looking for heroes, turn around and you will see
Why are we here, searching for answers, to life’s mysteries
Everyday Hero, turn the page of make believe
Everyday Hero………………Fly
Hero………………..

Reminding us, who we are
The purity in your smile, no fear, or judgment…..only love
Child of a brand new day, hope is on the way

V
Wonder sometimes what I’m doing, lost and afraid and I can’t see straight
Pray that things will get better, need a sign that I’m not alone
Fell into a restless sleep, mind’s playing tricks on me
Face to face with my realizations
Looking for relief, that gives me peace, and I call your name
B
All of the choices we make, leading back to our faith
C
God give me strength, fill me with peace, and with grace
Peace in my heart, to let it go, let it go……..
V
Feel I’m not alone, caught in the undertow , in a place where nothing can hurt me
See the world, with an innocence, learn to trust my intuition
From the outside in, indestructible, Beneath the surface my fears take over
Living in the past, is not all bad, I hear a voice and I keep on going
B
Just say a prayer for us now, into the strength of his words
C
God give me grace, teach me forgiveness as long as it takes (with nothing at stake)
Hear all my prayers, stand on my own, and not be afraid
God gives us faith, learn to embrace and not look away
Lead me to your light, in my life, in my life
B
All of the chances we take, leads us back into this space
Trust in your love for us all, get up when we fall
C
God give me with faith, fill me with peace, hope and grace
Take away my fears ,heal the wounds that tear into my veins
God gives us strength, fills us with love, not with hate
Peace in our hearts, to let it go……, let it go,……..let it go
