Lyrics He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother - Previously Unissued - Donny Hathaway

The road is long
With a million winding turns
That leads us to who knows where
Who knows where
But I am 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 he to bear
We'll get there
For I know he will 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
Is not filled with gladness
And love, and love, and love
For one another

Thank you, Lord
I said it's a long...
I said it's a long...
Heyyy,
It's a long, hard road
From which there is no return
But while we're on the way to there
Why not share?
And the load doesn't weigh,
Doesn't weigh me down at all
He ain't heavy,
He's my brother
He's my brother
He ain't heavy,
He ain't heavy,
He's my brother
