Ruth Is A Hero To Me


In the days of the Judges

Lived a woman named Ruth.
The land of Moab

Was her home in her youth.

When death caused her mother-in-law,
Naomi to feel alone,
Ruth showed her kindness
To make her strong.

Ruth, Ruth she’s a hero to me;
In the face of sadness she was KIND as can be.
Ruth, Ruth she’s a hero to me;
In the face of sadness she was KIND as can be.

When Naomi was departing
She wanted Ruth to stay behind.
Ruth met her crisis with the following reply:
She said I’ll go where you go,

And I’ll lodge where you ledge;
Your people will be my people,
And your God will be my God.

 Ruth, Ruth she’s a hero to me;
She showed how FAITHFUL a person could be.

Ruth, Ruth she’s a hero to me;
She showed how FAITHFUL a person could be.

Ruth worked in the fields at harvest time;
From morn’ till eve’ she did not mind.
She did not say, “its all for me”,
She shared what she had with her family.

Ruth, Ruth she’s a hero to me;
She was WILLING TO WORK and HELP her family.
Ruth, Ruth she’s a hero to me;
She was WILLING TO WORK and HELP her family.

Ruth married kind Boaz,
And its fun to see:
Ruth the Moabite
In Jesus’ fam’ly tree.

Ruth, Ruth she’s a hero to me;
She is a worthy example for me.
Ruth, Ruth she’s a hero to me;
—- I’m glad she’s in Jesus’ family tree.
