Verse 1:
Sometimes in our lives
We all have pain, we all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's always tommorow

Chorus:
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

Verse 2:
Please swallow your pride
If I have things you need to borrow
For no one can fill
Those of your needs that you won't let show

Bridge:
You just call on me brother when you need a hand
We all need somebody to learn on
I just might have a problem that you'll understand
We all need somebody to lean on

Bridge

Verse 3:
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 if you just call me
Call me if you need a friend

Interlude:
Call me, call me, call me, call me
Call Him, call Him, call Him, call Him

Chorus:
Lean on Him, when you're not strong
And He'll be your friend, He'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need somebody to lean on
