Holding out for a hero

Where have all the good men gone and where are all the gods?
Where's the great white Hercules to fight the rising odds?
Isn't there a white knight upon a fiery steed?
Late at night I toss and I turn and I dream of what i need

I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero till the end of the night
he's gotta be strong and he's gotta be fast
and gotta be fresh from the fight
I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero till the morning light
He's gotta be sure and he's gotta be soon
And he's gotta be larger than life
Larger than life

Somewhere after midnight
In my wildest fantasies
Somewhere just beyond my reach
There's someone reaching back for me
Racing on the thunder and rising with the heat
It's gonna take a Superman to sweep me off my feet

I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero till the end of the night
he's gotta be strong and he's gotta be fast
and gotta be fresh from the fight
I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero till the morning light
He's gotta be sure and he's gotta be soon
And he's gotta be larger than life
Larger than life

Out where the mountains meetthe heavens above
Out where the lightning strikes the sea
I can swear that there's someone somewhere watching me
Through the wind and the chill and the rain
and the storm and the flood
I can feel his approach like a fire in my blood

I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero till the end of the night
he's gotta be strong and he's gotta be fast
and gotta be fresh from the fight
I need a hero
I'm holding out for a hero till the morning light
He's gotta be sure and he's gotta be soon
And he's gotta be larger than life
Larger than life

Bonnie Tyler - I N...

Hosted by eSnips

Oh, do I remember this song. It's sung by Bonnie Tyler. In the past, it's about finding a life partner, getting married, settling down plus the chemistry, the excitement, the life and everything explosive about passion.

In fact, the energy behind the song is kinda of scary (in the sense of wondering, is it possible? can such a man exist?) and so attractive 'cos it reflects the cry of the female heart.

The heart of a woman is not like having english tea at the patio - though it can be that. But the depths, ah, that's different. It can be wild, turbulent, untamed, pulsating wait for a mate that would match her. But of course, we cover it with niceties and it is forgotten in the grind of daily lives - except, perhaps, when it is unleashed in the bedroom...

But really, the only Perfect man that would fill such a role is Christ alone. Because only with Him, can I NOT cut any corners, not convince myself to settle.

Heart's desire, soul's satisfaction - these are cries from the depths, the thirst of which only true living waters and quench.

Living with God - it's like a Dare, an outrageous invitation to life! If only I can shed the shackles of security and launch out into the deep with Him. If only I can reach inside into the true me and live courageously, adventurously with Him. Let me keep my eyes upon You and You shall transform me Lord!
