Oh, my brother, where was I
When you called out for me to help you
Did I seem too busy, too busy to hear How could you have known that I
I had a problem of my own
Or did it seem, seem to you
That I just did not care Don't condemn me for not being there
When you really needed me
Oh, just understand that each of us
Have burdens that we've got to bear Oh, but there's One, One who's always
Always willing to help us, yes
And it's Jesus, my brother
Just give Him your care Oh, we all need each other at one time or another
But the One we always need is the Lord
We all need the helping hand of a loving sister or a brother
But the One we can always depend upon is the Lord (Ooh)
And loving sister, tell me where were you
When I needed somebody to talk with
About a fault of mine that
I had carried around for so very long I couldn't share it with just anybody
'Cause everybody, you see
Everybody wouldn't understand me
And when I couldn't talk with you
That's when I felt so all, all alone I know, I know, I know that you love me
Ah, but sometimes you don't know what to say
You don't know what say, you don't know what do That would give me the strength to make
Strength to make it through oh, but there's One, I know
One who's always standing right here, standing here beside me
Yes and it's Jesus, loving sister and He knows what to do Yeah, we all need each other at one time or another
(Yes we do, yeah)
But the One we always need is the Lord
Yes, we all need the helping hand of a loving sister or a brother
(Yeah)
But the One we can always depend upon is the Lord
(We can, yeah-hey) Yeah, we all need each other at one time or another
(Yes we do, yeah)
But the One we always need is the Lord
Yes, we all need the helping hand of a loving sister or a brother
But the One we can always depend upon is the Lord
