TFT: Bill Withers


Not every song that will be featured here will be what is generally considered as being “Christian” in the eyes of this world.  For some will be anguished cries from the pit of despair while others will be quite obviously fervent rants of rebellion.  Nonetheless, be assured that they will all be of our Heavenly Father (in one way or another) and I hope that you have been given ears to hear the message.


Lean On Me
Bill Withers
Some
Times 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 things
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
If you just call me

Call me
If you need a friend
Call me
Call me
Uh-huh
Call me
When you need a friend
Call me
If you ever need a friend
Call me
Call me
Call me
Call me
Call me
Call me
Call me
Call me
Call me
If you need a friend
Call me
Call me
Call me
Call me
Call me
Call me
Call me
Call me
Call me


Ain’t No Sunshine
Bill Withers
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
It's not warm when she's away
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And she's always gone too long
Anytime
She goes away

Wonder this time where she's gone
Wonder if she's gone to stay
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime
She goes away

And I know
I know
I know
I know
I know
I know
I know
I know
I know
I know
I know
I know
I know
I know
I know
I know
I know
I know
I know
I know
I know
I know
I know
I know,
I know
I know
Hey I oughtta leave young thing alone
But ain't no sunshine when she's gone

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
Only darkness every day
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home
Anytime
She goes away
Anytime
She goes away
Anytime
She goes away

  6. Thanks for stopping by, my dear Ann!!! I suppose it would all depend upon just who she is and if they had to deal with Duke when she got back. (LOL?)
