Analysis of LEAN ON YOU
When am stranded and hopeless
When my destiny seems to fall apart
I will lean on You dear Lord
For Your mercy and grace are limitless
In every situation, You remain the same
When storms will try to bring me down
Though I may cry from dusk to dawn
When the world will see no future in me
I will lean on You dear Lord
For You are always there for me
