LEAN ON YOU

Original lyrics by Stan C. Countz

VERSE 1
From the top of my head to the tip of my tongue
You are familiar with all of my ways
From the rising of the sun to the time it goes down
May your name be forever praised

VERSE 2
Into this evil world you came
Healing the sick and the lame
This world will never be the same
Praise your name

CHORUS
You are the Way, the truth and the life; you were a willing sacrifice
It seems to me the least I can do is to reach out and give you my life
You are ever faithful and true but I could never say the same for me
I’ve been hateful, mean and rude but I’m so grateful I can lean on you
I’m so grateful I can lean on you

BRIDGE
You didn’t do it out of duty
It seems to me you got a raw deal
My ashes for your beauty
At your feet I will kneel
It could’t be for real

CHORUS

OUTRO
What do we have that you could possibly need?
What could we do that you didn’t already do?
What we’ve done for the least of these
We’ve done unto you
Don’t you know it’s true?
What we’ve done for the least of these
We’ve done unto you

CHORUS
