Legacy Five - Heroes Of The Faith Lyrics

I first met you at a singing when I was just sixteen
You took the time to share with me the reason why you sing
You said the road's not always easy but God is ever true
You said just share the good things that He has done for you

You became my hero of the faith, soldier of the cross
Singing out the grand old story, Jesus saves the lost

And now it's time to lay your armor down and pass the torch
You're a hero of the faith, solider of the cross

I just got the news this morning, that you had slipped away
It seemed my heart was broken it couldn't end this way
But then I saw with spirit eyes the entrance you must have made
Running to the arms of Jesus finally home to stay

With every hero of the faith, soldier of the cross
Singing out the grand old story, Jesus saves the lost

And now you've laid your armor down, you've passed the torch
But you're a hero of my faith, a strong soldier of the cross
