Lean On Me

Kirk Franklin · Double Play [2010]

(This is for that little child with no father

For that man who doesn't have a place to stay

For the little boy living with AIDS)



Lead

There's a man

Standin' on the corner

He has no home, he has no food and his blue skies are gone

Can you hear him cryin' out



And there's a girl searching for a father and a friend

Praying that the storm some day will end



But instead of walkin' away

Open up your heart and say



Chorus

I am here, you don't have to worry

I can see your tears

I'll be there in a hurry when you call

Friends are there to catch you when you fall

Here's my shoulder you can lean on me.



Lead

There's a child who is sick and begging to be free

But there is no cure for his disease

He looks up to his mother as

she holds his hand



Praying that someday the sun will shine again

(and the pain)

And the pain will end



Chorus

I am here, you don't have to worry

I can see your tears

I'll be there in a hurry when you call

Friends are there to catch you when you fall

Here�s my shoulder you can lean on me.



Lead

Tell me how can I, how can I love Jesus

When I've never seen His face



Yet I see you dyin'



And I turn and walk away

So hold my hand



Let me take you to a friend of mine



Who's waiting to just to ease your troubled mind



He loves you more than you'll ever know



So instead of walking away (open up)

Open up your heart and say



Chorus

I am here, you don't have to worry

I can see your tears

I'll be there in a hurry when you call

Friends are there to catch you when you fall

Here's my shoulder you can lean on me.



Here's my shoulder you can lean on me.



You're my friend, but you're also my brother



Here's my shoulder...you can lean on me.
