Our opinions might not be the same
Theres so many things that are
Hand in hand we can form a chain
That never can be torn apart

Chorus
Together we stand
Divided we fall
Let's build a bridge
Tear down the wall
Let us respond
To our brother's call
Together we stand
Divided we fall

In life there are times we'll disagree
Doesn't mean that I don't care
I need you and you need me
Love has made that very clear

Chorus

Oh, how we need one another, oh
We can't live without each other, oh
You're my sister, you're my brother
I need you, everyday of my life
I need you
Oh, how I hurt when you're hurting, oh
And I cry when you're burdened, oh
So the lesson I'm learning, oh how
I need you, oh

Chorus

Stand with me
I need you
I need you everyday
Right by my side
(Can you stand...)
Stand with me
I need you
Stand with me
I need you

Oh thank you Jesus
Would you help your children
Would you look down upon us
Get us to love one another
To forgive one another, oh
Help every black man, white man
Red man, yellow man
Rich man, poor man
Sick man, every man
Look down upon us
Smile
