- Romans 1:22-23 Proverbs 14:12
- Alexander the great, conquered the world
Napoleon and Hitler tried the same
Military genius, big power display
If it weren't for school history
I wouldn't even know their name!
- CHORUS
Big deal, they haven't changed my life
Big deal, they're all dead and in their grave
Big deal, though it happened so long ago
Big deal, my life is still the same
- Einstein said, "Everything is relative"
Darwin said my relative's in the zoo
Scientific genius, the things these men knew
But don't let some scientist
Make a monkey out of you! CHORUS- Plato theorized, the idea is reality
Descartes thought I think therefore I am (Whats that mean?)
Philosophical genius, so confusing to me
If you really want to know the truth
Let God's word set you free! CHORUS- He was just a simple carpenter, born in a stable
Put to death for speaking truth in love
No military genius, no scientific fame
But His life has changed the world
And Jesus is His name!
- CHORUS
- It's a Big Deal, He's changed my life
(Hes in control of my life)
Big deal, He's not dead, look in the grave
(Hes not dead, He is alive!)
Big deal, though it happened so long ago
My life will never be the same
I said my life will never be the same!

HIGHWAY OF HEALED HOPES
Matthew 28:20b II Corinthians 5:17
I walk this lonely road down the Boulevard cause my car broke down
Looked under the hood, suddenly my face turned black and brown
Engine blew; oil flew; now I look more like a clown
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
My shadow walks with me because it has no choice
But it'd tell me to hit the road if it had a voice
I knew I should have bought a Hugo or Rolls Royce
So now I walk alone
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
I know that I could clean my outside body
But I've stained my heart, the part of me you can't see
Oh how I wish someone up there would find me
'Til then I walk alone
Ah-ah, ah-ah, ah-ah
Then something changed inside, I'm clean since Jesus came into my heart
He replaced my broken dreams and promised He would never part
Ah-ah, ah-ah Now I'm not alone, I'm not a
He walks with me every step of every day
He died so that I could walk the right way
He found me and now I know that I can say
I'll never walk alone

- Ephesians 6:12-18
Our battle is not with flesh and blood or the Phantom or men with chainsaws or Skeletor or other humans that may be hard to get along with. But we wrestle with evil spiritual powers in dark places. And in the midst of that conflict, who are you going to call on? Ghostbusters, a man dressed like a bat, the almighty dollar, a turtle, Superman, or maybe just try to escape on some high or modern technology. Who is your hero?
© 1992 Larry Bubb. All Rights Reserved.- HEROES
- Hebrews 2:14,15
- When I was growing up he was the superhero of the day
- He was faster than a speeding bullet, No Way. . . Way
- He could bend steel, I think that's what they claim
- Just by putting it on the track of a speeding train
- One mighty hero could fly, but he looked just like a rat
- One sucked blood from people's necks, nothing more than a bat
- The names may change, but the story's the same
- Today's heroes are as complex and just about as strange
- Let's see, Underdog transformed to Thundercats
- Mighty Mouse metamorphisized to
- Mighty Morphin Power Rangers
- Superman superseded Superhuman Samurai Cybersquad
- And Batman became Pokeman?
- CHORUS
- We need a hero in this crazy mixed up world
- We need a hero who will never fade away
- We need a hero in this painful wicked world
- We need a hero who can come and save the day
- (2nd time) We need a hero we can trust in all they say
- Before long the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles will be
- Elderly, deviant, senile sumo-wrestlers wearing girdles
- Hanson and Spice Girls will get married some day
- And after the sex change, He-Man will be She-Gay
- Our heroes go on strike because they need more pay
- See it's hard to survive on just 10,000 a day
- Madonna's a virgin, the artist we still call Prince would die for you?
- Well, if Milli Vanilli says so you know it's gotta be true
- CHORUS
- Once I was tied down to this railroad track of life
- The ropes of sin and pain were too strong for me
- To set myself free
- But just when Satan's Santa Fe
- Was ready to crush my heart that day
- Jesus stepped right in front of that hell bound train
- Destroyed the chains that caused me such pain
- I jumped up to thank him for saving my neck
- But I heard a loud crash, there was a terrible wreck
- His blood trickled down the rails, he took my place
- In the distance I heard nails
- Jesus you are my hero
- I will follow you till this life is through
- Heroes come and heroes go
- But I've only found one that I can call my very own
- Jesus you are my hero
- I will follow you till my life is through
- Jesus you are my hero!

- Ooo you know it, he's bad, so just beat it
- Yes, there are two roads you can go by
- But in the long run, there's only one that leads to heaven
- It can't be bought with lots of money or dead bones
- The way's been paid for by God's own son
- And if you want on heaven's road
- There's one Man you've got to know
- Who shines white light and wants to show
- How all that glitters isn't gold or dead bones
- Though He died in days of old
- You will never find His bones
- Cause He took that rock and made it roll
- And He paid for your Stairway to Heaven
