Lyrics for Superhero

Jesus Is God
The Reason Y
God Is Good
This Much
Groovy
SuperHero
Get Off My Back
Big Mouth
Bionic Son
Crossroads

But if I told you that you might
Find the answer to this life
Would you think I was crazy

You ride the roller coaster
You ride it all along the way

Chorus
Jesus is God - so don't you take Him lightly, no
Why don't you believe
Jesus is God - we're saying that He is, no we never did say that He might be God
Why don't you believe

Verse 2
All the answers in your head
From the stories you've been fed
You'd think you were crazy

Take the truth that you have known
From the seed that has been sewn
You'll know you're not crazy

You ride the roller coaster
You ride it all along the way

Chorus

Verse 1
Superstars and fancy cars, the glitter, glitz and glam
Fashion czars, new body parts the pill some feed their fans
Movies flash and voices clash each fighting for your Jack
Their promise fails to satisfy, they stab you in the back

What are we singing for?
Why do you think we are hanging here?
Come a little closer, I'll make it crystal clear

Chorus
It's not for the money and not for the show
We're singing this song so everybody knows
It's not for the money and not for the fame
Jesus is the reason that we even came

Verse 2
Spiderman and Mr. T, the great, the big, the bang
New diet pills, old fairy tales, it all goes against the grain
Some looking here, most looking there, all trying to escape
The emptiness and lack of trust, and questions of their fate

What are we singing for?
So why do you think we are hanging here?
Come a little closer, I'll make it crystal clear

Verse 1
Lookin' about for a million dollar man, clutchin' money in your hands
Thinkin' green is gonna save ya, everybody pay ya
You're brilliant take on life, your bankrupt
Where can you go
Figuring out how to make it with a girl, fallin' head over heals
Want to be a better player, even say a prayer, to make her think you care
But you don't

Bridge
If you stand here tonight, let me hear you
If you think I am right, let me hear you
If you're ready to shout, and you know what I'm talking about
Let me hear you say..

Chorus
God is good, all the time
All the time, God is good! (repeat)

Verse 2
Checkin' it out from the bottom to the top, ya know I'm never gonna stop
All the screetchin', ya know the preachin', Bible teachin', it puts a twinkle in your toes
Makes you jump because ya know, from your spirit to your soul
God is in Control, let me hear you say, God is in Control

Bridge
Chorus

Let me hear you say--

Verse 1
Grafted in the vine, nourished by the Tree of Life
Echoes from the Word made flesh, illuminates the night

And please remember that I committed long ago
Not just my body, but my mind and yes my soul
And though you've sinned, I'll never let you go
So keep holdin' on to the cross, keep holdin' on

Chorus
I love you this much my child, no matter where you've been or what you've done
I love you this much my child, it should be plain for you to see,
I love you this much, I love you this much.

Verse 2
Creative love rebuilds again a world that's lost in sin
A cross replaces loss by lifting up the King

And please remember that I committed long ago
Not just my body, but my mind and yes my soul
And though you've sinned, I'll never let you go
So keep holdin' on to the cross, keep holdin' on

Chorus

Verse 1
Take a look at all that Jesus did, I think that it's so groovy
The living Word, God walking in the flesh, and I think that it's so groovy

Chorus
He died for me, He Died for me
He died for me, He died for me

Verse 2
Bore the curse of the world to set us free, I think that it's so groovy.
Buried sin on the hill of Calvary, I think that it's so groovy.

Verse 1
There was a time in my life when I knew everything I knew was wrong
My cape was falling apart and I was left with nothing, I wasn't that strong

And I felt like falling off some ride
Then I landed into love, into life
I knew I was changed that day

Bridge
And I am a superhero, and I have my armor on,
And if I fall you catch me, redeeming the lost through even me

Chorus
Can you see me flying over, rescuing those so in need
And I used to be a zero, now I'm
I am a Superhero

Verse 2
There was a day in my life when I felt I wasn't a hero of God's
The guilt from all o my sins was just like cyrptonite, I was feeling so lost

And I felt like I was falling from grace
Then You lifted me and looked in my face
I knew You when You looked at me

Bridge
Chorus

Interlude
Superman could fly so high you see him touch the sky, but I know there's a God in me greater than any man of steel
Batman and Robin, what a duo you see, but my God and me, we can beat the enemy, embrace the victory, we beat the enemy--cause I am a Superhero

Verse 1
Hey, I can see that you look like me, got a whiff that you smell like me, are you me?
No, parking your rear right here, move your body parts from here, am I clear?

I thought I died, I thought I died

Chorus
You ain't getting a free ride, free ride, free ride

Verse 2
Hay, is for horses and cows too, yet I do what I should not do, am I new?

I thought I died, I thought I died

Chorus
You ain't getting a free ride, free ride, free ride

Bridge (musical)

I thought I died, I thought I died

Chorus
You ain't getting a free ride, free ride, free ride

Verse 1
You've lived enough time in the flood of dissipation
Are you trapped by what you said, give ear to this proclamation

Ya, Ya, Ya

Chorus
The big M, it's full of deadly poison
The big M, it's set on fire by hell
The big M, it corrupts the whole person
The big M, it curses fellow man as well

Ya, Ya, Ya

Verse 2
People pay great attention to voices, yet their hearts are black like the hole
Put perversity far from your mouth, so your lips may preserve your soul

Ya, Ya, Ya

Chorus

Interlude: Monk Noises

Ya Ya Ya

Last Chorus
The big M, praise to the Lord and Father
The big M, comfort and exhort your brother
The big M, we're crying out for your presence
The big M, hearing is best during silence

Verse 1
Well I heard a story just the other day, about a man of God and all the people say,
this mighty man of God was a fisherman.
Then I heard a story about a man named Saul,
who's zeal and hate brought fear to all,
until his fall from pride changed this man that we know as Paul.

Do you know it's true? He can change you too!

If you love, you will feed my sheep. He said to me.
If you love, you will feed my sheep; unconditionally.

Chorus
Hold on as tight as you can, we're gonna blast upon this land
With a supersonic kind of love, dripping from God's Bionic Son!

Verse 2
Then I heard a story about a man who died for the things I did
T o change what's inside, transforming everyone with Gospel news.
If the Great I Am can heal a fisherman, and the God of Peace can change a Pharisee,
Then I know His love can change a man like you, and a man like me.

Do you know it's true? He can change you too!

Chorus

Verse 1
I cannot make it on my own, I need someone to lean upon
Someone who is greater than myself, I'm so vulnerable

I'm needing to choose which way to turn
Someone to lean on
Someone to count on

And when I see you by my side,
With a love that will abide, you love it will abide

Chorus
We are standing at the crossroads, we've left the past behind
When we give our lives to Jesus Christ, the narrow road we'll find
And even though the way is hard, I've made up my mind
To walk with Him forever, and leave this world behind

Verse 2
I haven't won the race I'm in, but I'm not defeated
I know you're there to cheer me on, I'm so delighted

I'm needing to choose which way to turn
Someone to lean on
Someone to count on

And when I see you by my side,
With a love that will abide, your love it will abide

Chorus

I'm not defeated (repeat)
