Spoken
This is for that little child with no father
For that man that doesn't have a place to stay
For that little boy living with AIDS
Can I tell you a story, tell you a story?
You can lean on me.
Verse 1:
There's a man
Standing on the corner
He has no home he has no food;
And his blue skies are gone,
Can't you hear him crying out?
Pre-Chorus 1:
And there's a girl;
Searching for a father and a friend,
Praying that the storm someday will end.
But instead of walking away;
Open up your heart and say:
Chorus 1
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.
Verse 2
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 and
Pre-Chorus 2:
As she holds his hand;
Praying that someday the sun will shine again.
(And the pain?)
And the pain will end
Repeat Chorus 1
BRIDGE:
Tell me how can I,
How can I love Jesus;
When I've never seen His face?
Yeah, I see you dying;
And I turn and walk away.
Bridge 2:
So hold my hand;
Let me take you to a Friend of mine.
He's waiting just to ease your troubled mind.
Yet instead of walking away,
Open up your heart and say:
Chorus 2
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 will be there to catch you when, catch you when you fall.
Here's my shoulder, you can lean on me. (3x)
You're my friend, but you're also my brother.
Here's my shoulder, you can lean on me.
