I heard that you were hurting That you were suffering pain But I didn't dare just turn my head And look the other way For when your heart is aching My heart is aching too Let me help you bear your burden That's the least that I can do I'll be standing in the gap for you Just remember someone, somewhere is praying for you Calling out your name Praying for your strength I'll be standing in the gap for you Right now you may be troubled But everything will work out fine For the Spirit knows before you speak What is on your heart and mind So I'll be interceding Til your standing strong again The peace that passes understanding Is going to be yours, but until then So hang on my friend It won't be long And you have the strength To carry on For when two or three are walking together It will be a much lighter load For isn't that what a brother and a sister are for
