Kristofferson Kris - Hero Lyrics

Don't you like to see the hero take his licks like a man

Stand up and be tested and be true

Would you like to be a hero in your life well you can did you know it's up to you

Would you trade your place with Jesus on the cross if you could

Shinin' through eternity

Would it bother you to know that you can be just as good as you really want to be

If you're bound to do your duty then it's time that you do

Look your future in the face

For the most important person in the world which is you or the whole damn human race

There's a holy band of angels flying high where no mortal ever trod

Singing holy holy holy holy oh Jesus Christ is the Lord Almighty God



You see the good thing is you don't have to be as good as Jesus to start out with

All you gotta do ask yourself, how would Gary Cooper have done it

Or John Kennedy or Martin Luther King or Malcom X

There's a holy band of angels...

(Holy holy holy holy holy holy holy holy oh

Holy holy holy holy holy holy holy holy oh)
