Do you have a hero, someone you look up to?


Someone who's bigger than life.


Do they have a heart that's gentle and tender?


And a will of steel when they must do what is right!


 


CHORUS:


So here's to the heroes who do what they must!


Here's to the hero who stands for what's just!


Sharing the burden when someone is hurtin',


Here's to the hero in all of us!


 


Every-day people sometimes are heroes,


Though they don't get a big prize.


They'll move on the double when someone's in trouble,


Their own comfort they would sacrifice!


 


CHORUS


 


You have been heroic, though you didn't know it,


It happened everytime...


That you offered help, with no thought of yourself...


A hero's heart is a heart that it is kind,


A hero's heart is a heart that it is kind!


 


CHORUS (twice)

Here's To The Hero.

CHORUS:  (twice)


I've got some rights, some rights in this world.


You've got some rights, some rights in this world.


Just by being born, every boy and girl,


Automatically got some rights in this world.


 


I must be free to think my thoughts,


And to say what I must say,


To believe in what I believe,


And I don't believe that anyone should take it all away yeah!


 


CHORUS


I need to feel safe in the streets,


And at home and school everyday.


I've got to love who I naturally love,


And if someone tells me different, this is what I'm gonna say hey!


 


CHORUS


 


Now there are places on this earth,


Where people are not treated fair.


No, they don't have the rights they deserve,


So let's sing this song for everybody everywhere yeah!


 


CHORUS (three times)

Some Rights in This World.

One hand, one heart.


One voice in the night,


One dream, one song,


One chance to make it right.


 


This is the power of One,


To do what must be done,


To stand for what you believe even though you are afraid.


A difference is made,


A life is saved with


One hand, one heart.


One voice in the night,


One dream, one song,


One chance to make it right.


 


This is the power you hold.


The truth must be told;


You’re the rolling stone


That makes the mountain slide.


Your Spirit is tried.


You live with Pride with


One hand, one heart.


One voice in the night,


One dream, one song,


One chance to make it right.


 


This is the power you are.


You must follow your star.


You alone hold the key


To your destiny.


With you it can be done.


You have the power of


One hand, one heart.


One voice in the night,


One dream, one song,


One chance to make it right.


One.

The Power of One.

What can one little person do?


What can one little me or you do?


What can one little person do to help this world go round?


One can help another one


And together we can get the job done.


What can one little person do to help this world


 


Harriet Tubman was alone on the darkened road to freedom


But she couldn't leave her people far behind


Moses stretched out her hand.  She led them to the Promised Land


'Cause she knew that she had justice on her side.


 


When Sojourner Truth was freed, she got down on her knees


And prayed to God to help her on her way


With her voice and with her might, she fought for what was right


‘Cause she knew that she had justice on her side


 


Rosa Parks sat on the bus, and the driver said, "You must


Move to the back of the bus or else be thrown in jail


But she stayed and stood her ground, and she brought that old law down


For she knew that she had justice on her side.


 


Brother Martin Luther King, he told the world, "I Have a Dream"


He led this country's fight for human rights


We must fight for liberty until all of us are free


And we'll know that we have justice on our side.
