(Verse 1: Women Unison)
The heavens were silent, the earth weeped in pain.
Nations were trembling and hope never came.
A terror filled the air & it wouldn't go away
We needed a hero to come and save the day.
Famine and hunger, disease in the land, the hatred the killing taking lives from Your hand.
Creation waits through the darkness we pray, tell me where is the hero to come and save the day?
(Verse 2: Men Trio Unison)
Through the nails, through the thorns, from the hill to the grave. Was a voice in the distance, the Lamb that was slain.
My soul had no song and my debt I couldn't pay.
When I needed a hero, You came & You saved the day.
[All: Trio Unison]
To the homeless, the widow, the fatherless son.
To the sick and the broken, alone with no one.
Lift up your head; your hope is on the way. When we needed a hero You came and You saved the day.
[Bridge 1:]
When the curtain had closed and it felt like the end. When Your blood caught the fall and took away every sin. Even though men deny, You're the only sacrifice that loved us enough you loved us so much. Lord that You gave Your life, see, You saved my life.
Now I can see you I'm no longer ashamed. Your power I feel see our lives have exchanged.
Every wrong is erased, Jesus, You are my hero, You came and You saved the day.

You are my hero; you came and you saved [x2]
You are my hero; You came and saved the day
[Vamp:]
You saved, You saved the day! [repeat]
Ending:
You are my hero, You came and You saved the day
