Lean on Jesus

Shawn wrote this song at work yesterday and came home and played it. By the second time through all 3 of the children had their instruments out and were playing along. It was so wonderful. God gave me the vision to have them playing together with Shawn and I singing a long time ago and it has come to bear fruit. PRaise the Lord!!!
======================

Lean on Jesus
Copyright 2006 Shawn Midkiff

When times and days and seasons come
and you think that you're the only one
walkin' through this life with pain and strife.
When it seems that you're lost your way
and the Lord seems so far away
just remember the Lord is by your side.

CHORUS
Lean on Jesus, Lean on Jesus
for Jesus will be your closest friend
Lean on Jesus, lean on Jesus
For Jesus will be with you 'til the end.

Just remember what Elijah said
to the Lord, "I'm the only one left."
When he was in the cave all alone.
But the Lord God's hand gently came down
"My son you're not the only one found,
for I have 7000 just like you."

CHORUS

Now I know how hard this life can be
and what it's like to raise a family
raising your children to serve Him.
But the first example that they see,
in this life will be you and me
so let us serve the Lord and lean on Him.

CHORUS

Yes when you lean on Jesus you'll make it to the end.

=======================

This is really very very good and I would love to have it recorded. Shawn sings and the children all play. I don't know how or where to go about doing that, but I sure would love to see it done so family history's sake if nothing else. :-)
