Donny Hathaway - Extension of a Man

Lord Help Me

Lord, help me
Lord, help me
Lord, help me
Lord, help me

Once more again, your humble servant is calling on your name
I've got something I want you to do for me
Help me to inspire those that need inspiration
Let my life be a sign of a coming generation

And I'm also asking you to help my brother
He needs help too, Lordy
Help him to realize all that God has given
Help him to know that there's a purpose for living

And Lord, Lord
Hey, hey Lord
I want you to help me this evening
Help me (help me)
Help me (help me)
Lord, Lord, Lordy
I need you to help me this evening

And after you do that for me
Would you take time to look at my sister?
Lordy, I want you to help her this evening
Help her not to worry about fashion and style
Lord, Lord let her spend her time
just raising her child, Lordy, help me

I'm begging you Lord, oh Lordy
Help us as a nation to understand each other
Lord help us as a race to live and love one another
(Lord, help me)
(Lord, help me)
Please, Lordy

I'm asking you from my heart this evening
You know I need you
I need you by my side
You know I wanna do the thing that's right
You know my mind is willing
But sometimes I've let it weigh down
