This is for the little child with no father

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

And for that little boy living with AIDS

[Now tell your story, tell your story]

You can lean on me



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



And there's a girl

Searching for a father and a friend

Praying that the storm someday will end

But instead of walkin' 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



Oh, 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

Prayin' that someday the sun will shine again

And the pain, pain will end, come on



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



Tell me how can I, how can I love Jesus

When I never seen His face

Yet I see you dying

And I turn and walk away



So hold my hand, let me take you to a friend of mine

He's waiting just to ease your troubled mind

Instead of walkin' away, open up

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'll be there to catch you when, catch you when you fall, ooh

Thank you Jesus, yeah

Here's my shoulder, you can lean on me

Here's my shoulder, you can lean on me



Here's my shoulder, you can lean on me

Here's my shoulder, you could lean on me

Hallelujah
