Hero
Today I read about a hero
A teacher who died for a friend
She died standing for what’s right
Anothers life to defend
She did not compromise
She did not look away
She stood firmly for right
In the center of Gods way
Now she has fallen, a hero
Though she’d never see it that way at all
Just another person
Who answered principles call
Evil tried to silence her
Steal her voice away
Ahh but listen now my friends
Her voice is resounding still today
For listen to the voices
Speaking out all over the world
Championing the courage of a hero
Whose banner of principles is now unfurled
Yes evil tried to extinquish her flame
That shone into the night
Aww but look at evil now my friends
It is consumed by her light !

We should all strive to be the kind of hero this woman was. through the families pain i hope they can find comfort in the inspiration that she has given to so many people, people that didn't even know her. beautifully written russ. |
