Heroes



Those men who were so ready to fight 
Those souls so brave and true
Who stood held up their banner high
They fought for me and you
They paid the price by and by
To save Red White and Blue

I pray and pray every day their cause was not in vain
That their families hearts won't break 
For their souls God did take

So let us all take a stand 
And fight for our land
We must form a band 
And give them a hand

We must push ahead
For the cause isn't dead

God bless you America O' Land that I love
We are all in need of help from above.

Redemption


Three crosses stand on a hill called the skull
A crowd gathers as the men moan and groan
The man in the middle suffers more than the rest
For a war of heartache rages deep within His chest
He knew this hour would come before he reached thirty-five
For this man came not to live, He came to die
A swell of emotion catches in his throat 
For He looks down to find men gambling for his cloak
This man longed for his father in heaven 
Who knew the truth of the charges He’d been given
He’d been given a mission from the birth
To die for all within the earth
So He could save the human race 
The Son of man would have to face 
The punishment for sin which we call death 
The lone thought of setting people free rang in his head
The crown made not of gold but thorns
Was for us so that people could be reborn
The way to Heaven can not be bought 
It can only be given as a gift of love 
You see this man was Jesus Christ the Son of God


Hebrews 9:22 
Without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness of sins.

1 John 1:9
If we confess our sins He is faithful and just and will forgive our sins and purify us from all  unrighteousness.

John 1:12
Yet to all who received Him to those who believed in His name He gave the right to become children of God.
