Steve Holy - Heart Of A Hero lyrics

It's a fallen soldier with a purple heart A teacher grading papers after dark A preacher prayin' over a man's last day A shoulder to a runaway Givin' money to a perfect stranger Counselor workin' past the anger Fire fighters walking into the danger The day the towers fell In the heart of a hero Lies a courage you can't see oh no How far it goes, until the jumpin' in And that yearning to do what's right Goes deeper than that fear inside If you ask them, they'd do it all again That's the heart of a hero It's a daddy lovin' his little girl That girl growin' up to change the world She's teaching her grandpa how to read He had to quit school to plant the seeds Now that farmer reads out loud at night Words strongly read and full of line Of a simple man who was left to die With needles in his hand In the heart of a hero Lies a courage you can't see oh no How far it goes, until the jumpin' in And that yearning to do what's right Goes deeper than that fear inside If you ask them, they'd do it all again That's the heart of a hero Yeah the heart of a hero When love picked you up, carried you through the storm It's in that very moment, a hero is born In the heart of a hero Lies a courage you can't see oh no How far it goes, until the jumpin' in And that yearning to do what's right Goes deeper than that fear inside If you ask them, they'd do it all again That's the heart of a hero Yeah the heart of a hero
