The Song of Benedict -- Lyrics
By Oremus
Speaking from my window
hope someone will hear
listen to the Truth now
Romans, lend me your ear
won't you please remember
in whose image you were made
won't you please recall for us
what kind of price was paid?
Tell me what is truth now
the politician said
of what use is truth to you
if it costs you your head
won't you please remember
that I have mouths to feed
what is right will have to wait
I can't set you free.
Looking to the future,
what can we do now?
is there something you would change
what's your song about?
we can learn together
how to make things right
listen to the Truth now
lets set this world on fire.
Speaking from my window
hope someone will hear
listen to the Truth now
Romans, lend me your ear

Time for Oremus with this lyric of theirs, Christ and Tom, "Hero" from the
Oremus link.
When Hercules was saddened
the hero cried in pain
Apollo turned a madman
Achilles' fate: the same
the flower broke the iron
water wore away the stone
a hero who keeps on fighting
always stands alone.
High on the rock he stood
looking after all of us
wishing that he could
come down and just be one of us.
Even a hero with out love
cannot carry on
I am not a hero
but they expect me to carry on
Alone,
with no one to show me the way.
I am not a hero
but I will carry on.
He never lost a battle
He stood against the storm
But there's one thing that he just can't fight
His father calls him home
He'd done all he was bidden
He gave us all he knew
He had fulfilled his mission
With one more thing to do.
High above us he stood
Looking after all of us
Wishing that he could
Come down and just be one of us.
Even a hero with out love
cannot carry on
I am not a hero
but they expect me to carry on
Alone
with no one to show me the way
I am not a hero
but I will carry on
the hero knew it's over
but he had to stand and fight
and when it all was over
he knelt on the ground and cried
he wept for all he guarded
he wept for all his friends
he wept for all who knew him
he wept because this was the end
Down in the dust he lay
bleeding, crying, broken
before he was swept away
this is what he said:
Even a hero with out love
cannot carry on
You are only human
and they'll try to break you down
Alone
with no one to show you the way
You are not a hero
but I will carry you on
I have not forgotten
the memory of the brave
it's hard to be a hero
when they think that you're insane
mothers tell your children
that difficult is the road
but fame and recognition
only come after many woes
Oh up on high they'll stand
looking after all of us
wishing that they can
come down and just be one of us
Even a hero with out love
cannot carry on
I am not a hero
but they expect me to carry on
Alone
with no one to show me the way
I am not a hero
but I will carry on

 Everyday it's
the same thing
Another trend has begun
Hey kids, this might be the one
It's a race to be noticed
And it's leaving us numb
Hey kids, we can't be the ones
With all of our fashion
We're still incomplete
The God of redemption
Could break our routine
There's a new way to be human
It's nothing we've ever been
There's a new way to be human
New way to be human
And where is our inspiration?
When all the heroes are gone
Hey kids, could we be the ones
Cause nobody's famous
And nobody's fine
We all need forgiveness
We're longing inside
 There's
a new way to be human
It's nothing we've ever been
There's a new way to be human
It's spreading under my skin
There's a new way to be human
Where divinity blends
With a new way to be human
New way to be human
You're throwing Your love across my impossible space
You've created me, take me out of me into
A new way to be human
To a new way to be human
You're a new way to be human
Where my humanity bends
To a new way to be human
Redemption begins
You're a new way to be human
You're a new way to be human
You're the only way to be human
You're a new way to be human
