My life almost ended the other night
by my own hand.
I just couldn't seem to find
anymore strength left to stand.
When I felt this I told a friend,
and this is what he said to me...
I'm here to help you stand
you can lean on me.
Don't you see Jesus reachin' out his hand
just like he did for me.
When you left I thought my life ended
it came crashing to a stop.
Now a broken heart needs to be mended
because I fell from the top.
And then I see Jesus there standing
reminding me what my friend told me...
I'm here to help you stand
you can lean on me.
Don't you see Jesus reachin' out his hand
just like he did for me.
Man you have to remember how it felt for you
when you saw me there.
God sent me to help you remember
that someone does care...
So now when I think of it
I think of how I felt
as I stood there watching my brother
face his own death.
Now I look at him and I see
the strength he has left...
I'm here to help you stand
you can lean on me.
Don't you see Jesus reachin' out his hand
just like he did for me.
I see Jesus standing here
ready to carry me as I take his hand
I realize I'm just a man...
and he says
I'm here to help you stand
you can lean on me.
Don't you see I'm holdin' out my hand
like the Father did for me.
I'm never gonna let you go,
so come and rest in me.
I'm here to help you man,
so please believe in me...
