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


CHORUS


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

CHORUS


BRIDGE


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

CHORUS
