[Spoken Intro: Child]
Think about the generations and to say we want to make it a better
World for our children and our children's children. So that they know
It's a better world for them; and think if they can make it a better place

[Verse 1]
Hold me
Like the River Jordan
And I will then say to thee
You are my friend
Carry me
Like you are my brother
Love me like a mother
Will you be there?

[Harmonizing]

[Bridge]
Everyone's taking control of me
Seems that the world's got a role for me
I'm so confused will you show to me
You'll be there for me
And care enough to bear me

[Chorus: Michael Jackson & (Choir)]
(Hold me) Show me
(Lay your head lowly) Lowly
(Softly then boldly) Yeah
(Carry me there) I'm only human
(Hold me)
(Love me and feed me) Yeah yeah yeah
(Kiss me and free me) Yeah
(I will feel blessed) I'm only human
(Carry) Carry
(Carry me boldly) Carry me, yeah
(Lift me up slowly) Yeah
(Carry me there) I'm only human
(Save me)
(Heal me and bathe me) Lift me up, lift me up
(Softly you say to me)
(I will be there) I will be there
(Lift me)
(Lift me up slowly)
(Carry me boldly) Yeah
(Show me you care) Show me you care
(Hold me) Woo!
(Lay your head lowly) Get lonely sometime
(Softly then boldly)
(Carry me there) Carry me there
(Need me) Hoo!
(Love me and feed me) Lift me up, hold me
(Kiss me and free me) Lift me up sometime
(I will feel blessed)

[Spoken Outro: MJ]
In our darkest hour
In my deepest despair
Will you still care?
Will you be there?
In my trials and my tribulations
Through our doubts and frustrations
In my violence
In my turbulence
Through my fear and my confessions
In my anguish and my pains
Through my joy and my sorrow
In the promise of another tomorrow
I'll never let you part
For you're always in my heart

Michael Jackson

Michael Jackson was born on August 29, 1958, in Gary, Indiana. Jackson began his career when he was seven years old as the lead singer of the Jackson 5, breaking into stardom in 1969 after signing into Motown. The Jackson 5’s first four singles all peaked at number one on the Billboard 100, and soon after Michael pursued a solo career.

His breakthrough fifth album, 1979’s Off The Wall produced four top ten hits (including “Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough”) and sold 20 million copies, establishing him as a household name. The album was followed with 1982’s Thriller, which became the best selling album of all time, and was the first album to feature seven top 10 singles, including “Billie Jean” and “Beat It.”

In 1985, Michael contributed to the collaboration single “We Are The World”, which remains one of the best-selling singles of all time and raised nearly $65 million for famine relief.
