Kirk Franklin and Family - Lean On Me (poor quality)
There's a man standing on the corner
he has no home he has no food
and his blue skies are gone
can you hear him crying out
And there's a girl
searching for a father and a friend
praying that the storm some day will end
but instead of walking away
open up your heart and say
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
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 some day the sun will shine again
and the pain will end
I am here...
...you can lean on me
Tell me how can I, love (Him)
when I've never seen his face
yeah I see you dying and I turn and walk away
so hold my hand
let me take you to a friend of mine
waiting just to ease your troubled mind
he loves you more than you'll ever know
instead of walking away
open up your heart and say
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 you fall
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
Hallelujah...
