“The road is long
With many a winding turn
That leads us to who knows where
Who knows when
But I’m strong
Strong enough to carry him”
(lyrics He aint heavy, he’s my brother,
the Hollies)
(wading into the surf / Santa Rosa Beach, FL / Julie Cook / 2016)
I read recently that God sends us things that we don’t think we want…
but most often need…
There is always learning….
The road is long
With many a winding turn
That leads us to who knows where
Who knows when
But I’m strong
Strong enough to carry him
He ain’t heavy, he’s my brother
So on we go
His welfare is of my concern
No burden is he 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 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 the way to there
Why not share
And the load
Doesn’t weigh me down at all
He ain’t heavy, he’s my brother
He’s my brother
He ain’t heavy, he’s my brother…
Lyrics by Bob Russell and Bobby Scott
let the wise listen and add to their learning,
and let the discerning get guidance—
Proverbs 1:5
