Am I Not My Brother's Keeper

If he comes to me stumbling from the weight of his load
Shouldn’t I let him just fall down on his face in the road
Shouldn’t I hold out my hand, tell me what kind of friend would I be
If I didn’t care
Am I not my brother’s keeper, am I not my brother’s friend
If I’m not my brother’s keeper, who will look out after him
Is it just too old fashioned out of step with the times
To show some compassion for no reason nor rhyme
Are we too big to cry did it hurt if we try
To show a little love sometime
Am I not my brother’s keeper, am I not my brother’s friend
If I’m not my brother’s keeper, who will look out after him
