He Ain't Heavy

The road is long

With the many winding turns

That leads us to who knows where

But I'm strong

Strong enough to carry him

He ain't heavy, he's my brother

So on we go

His welfare is my concern

No burden is his to bear

We'll get there

For I know

He would not encumber me

He ain't heavy, he's my brother

If I'm laden at all

I'm laden with the sadness

That everyone's heart isn't filled

With the gladness of love for one another

It's a long, long road

From which there is no return

While we're on our way to there

Why not share?

And the load doesn't weigh me down at all

He ain't heavy, he's my brother
