Lyrics India.Arie – Brothers’ Keeper
Text:
Brothers and sisters!
Oh oh oh oh oh
Testing
Hey yeah
Will I walk what I talk
Will I open my heart
Can he trust me when I give him my word
Will I judge him or love him
Put nothing above him
Help him to see what he’s worth
Can I tend to his needs
When he’s down on his knees
Can I still see the light in his eyes
Can I lend him a hand
Let him still be a man
Will I run or stand by his side
Am I my brother’s keeper?
Yes I am!
Am I my brother’s teacher?
Yes I am!
Am I the one to reach him?
Yes I can!
Am I my brother’s keeper?
Yes I am!
Yes I am!
When he’s pushed to the edge when he’s out on a ledge
Can I help him to think with his heart
When he’s wrong when he’s right
I’ll be there to remind him
That he’s made in the image of God
He needs to know
That his mistakes don’t define his life
I’m a living example that there is a chance for redemption
On the other side
Am I my brother’s keeper?
Yes I am!
Am I the one to teach him?
Yes I am!
Am I the one to reach him?
Yes I can!
Am I my brother’s keeper?
Yes I am!
Yes I am!
Yes I am!
Yeah!
Sing together like
Yeah!
Hey!
Brothers and sisters
Yeah!
Yes I am!
Am I my brother’s teacher?
Yes I am!
Am I the one to reach him?
Yes I can!
Am I my brother’s keeper?
Yes I am!
Yes I am!
Am I my brother’s keeper?
Yes I am!
Am I my brother’s teacher?
Yes I am!
Am I the one to reach him?
Yes I can!
Am I my brother’s keeper?
Yes I am!
Yes I am!
Yes I am!
