LYRICS:
Sometimes in our lives we all have pain
We all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's always tomorrow
Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on
Please swallow your pride
If I have faith you need to borrow
For no one can fill those of your needs
That you won't let show
You just call on me brother, when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'll understand
We all need somebody to lean on
Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on
You just call on me brother, when you need a hand
We all need somebody to lean on
I just might have a problem that you'll understand
We all need somebody to lean on
If there is a load you have to bear
That you can't carry
I'm right up the road
I'll share your load

To all my American friends. Beyond all the struggles and differing political views there remains an ideal that the world admires about America. Beyond the recuring peaceful transition of power from one party to the other, beyond the differences of religion or color, there remains the ability of America to lend a helping hand when an individual or nation needs a helping hand.

Still listening to this precious man of God in 2024, may God continue to comfort his wife, Kathy, and kids.

I cannot fathom that Stephen is not there. I have not met him but he sings to my weary heart. Unique style and amazing voice. Short life but huge impact. We are blessed to hear him on and on. Thank you Stephen🎉❤

Couldn’t agree more🙏

[@540rollerman]

Oh how I miss Stephen, he helped me to Jesus. He was a great singer and loved God so much. He was humble and I think that is why he showed me how to love Jesus. Because I am like so many people I was selfish for my wants instead of what Jesus wants. Stephen showed me how to be humble.

[@anitaaliwonyamusoke9542]

Yes. His love comes through, easy to see. Inspiring. He's greatly missed.

Thank God that Bill & Gloria made all these AWESOME recordings. Many of the singers have passed on to Glory to join the Heavenly Choir, but one day we will join them. Until then we can enjoy what is left of them via KZbin. God Bless

[@kathrynmitchell6415]

I, too, thank God that Bill & Gloria made these AWESOME recordings. What worries me is that Bill & Gloria will die and we won't get to hear this beautiful music anymore. Either that or because I'm old, now, I'll end up in a Nursing Home soon, and will have no way to hear this music. I love God, but I'm scared. Please pray for me !! God bless us all !!

[@watchingmymouth]

Prayers for you Kathryn Mitchell. Some nursing homes have cd players and dvd players. Let's pray that you never have to enter a nursing home, that the Lord will let you be healthy enough to live on your own or with some assistance. God Bless you.

Stephen was without a doubt one of the greatest talents in the Gospel Music Industry. His wit was equal with his musical talent and it will never be matched. Just two days before going home to heaven, he brought the house down at the 2012 Gospel Legend's Reunion. We will surely miss him this year.
