Housefires, a Christian worship band from Atlanta, Georgia, in the United States, originated at Grace Midtown Church. The band was formed in 2014, following the addition of Kirby Kaple as a worship pastor. Their music diverges from the church’s earlier style, which was captured in two worship albums released as “Grace Midtown,” led by Pat Barrett and other artists. Instead, Housefires’ stripped-down, acoustic sound evokes musicians such as United Pursuit and All Sons & Daughters.

Lean On The Lord Lyrics By Housefires
[Intro: Cecily & Ryan Ellis, Ryan Ellis]
Lean on, lean on
Lean on, lean on (Yeah)
[Verse 1: Cecily]
I remember when I was just a kid
Didn’t worry ’bout a thing, the world was simple then
But it’s different now and hard to figure out
At some point I’ve got to learn to lay my questions down
[Pre-Chorus: Cecily]
(Oh-oh)
I’ve tried to make sense of it all but I just can’t
(Oh-oh)
When I don’t understand
[Chorus: Ryan Ellis & Cecily]
I lean on the Lord
Lean on the Lord
Some things don’t make sense
But one thing’s for sure
When I lean on You, Lord
Lean on You, Lord
Somehow Your love gives mе the strength to go on
So I lean on thе Lord
[Post-Chorus: Cecily]
Lean on, lean on
(Lean on, lean on)
Lean on, lean on
[Verse 2: Cecily & Ryan Ellis]
You didn’t fail me then, You won’t fail me now
If I’m still breathing there’s a reason that I’m still around
So I will trust in You and put my hope in You
Keep me on the straight and narrow, oh, just like You do
[Pre-Chorus: Cecily]
(Oh-oh)
I’ve tried to make sense of it all but I just can’t
(Oh-oh)
When I don’t understand
[Chorus: Ryan Ellis & Cecily]
I lean on the Lord
Lean on the Lord
Some things don’t make sense
But one thing’s for sure
When I lean on You, Lord
Lean on You, Lord
Somehow Your love gives me the strength to go on
So I lean on the Lord
[Post-Chorus: Cecily, Ryan Ellis]
Lean on, lean on (Yeah)
(Lean on, lean on) (Come on)
Lean on, lean on
(Lean on, lean on)
[Bridge: Cecily & Ryan Ellis]
Your word, Your grace, Your strength
I’m learning how to lean on
Your word, Your grace, Your strength
I’m learning how to lean on
Your word, Your grace, Your strength
I’m learning how to lean on
Your word, Your grace, Your strength
I’m learning how to—
[Chorus: Ryan Ellis & Cecily]
Lean on the Lord
Lean on the Lord
Some things don’t make sense
But one thing’s for sure
When I lean on You, Lord
Lean on You, Lord
Somehow Your love gives me the strength to go on
So I lean on the Lord
[Post-Chorus: Cecily]
Lean on, lean on (Lean on, lean on)
Lean on, lean on (Lean on, lean on)
(Lean on, lean on) Be strong enough
(Lean on, lean on) Be strong enough
(Lean on, lean on) Be strong enough
[Post-Chorus: Ryan Ellis, Cecily]
Be strong enough (Be strong enough)
Be strong enough (For you to lean on)
(Lean on, lean on)
[Post-Chorus: Cecily & Ryan Ellis]
He can carry your burdens (Lean on, lean on)
He can carry your shame (Lean on, lean on)
You can lean on the Lord (Lean on, lean on)
You can lean on the Lord (Lean on, lean on)
One thing’s for sure, you can lean on the Lord (Lean on, lean on)
You can lean on the Lord (Lean on, lean on)
You can lean on the Lord (Lean on, lean on)
One thing’s for sure (Lean on the Lord)
One thing’s for sure (Lean on the Lord)
You can lean on the Lord, yeah (Lean on, lean on)
Lean on the Lord, yeah (Lean on, lean on)
You can lean on the Lord, ohh (Lean on, lean on)
One thing’s for sure (Lean on the Lord)
One thing’s for sure
You can lean on the Lord
[Outro: Cecily, Ryan Ellis]
No other help I know (Woo!)
No other help I know (Church, come on!)
No other help I know (Sing that!)
Jesus’s, Jesus
No other help I know, no, no, no
No other help I know, no, no, no
No other help I know
Jesus’s, Jesus
No other help I know, no, no, no (Come on now)
No other help I know, no, no, no
No other help I know
Jesus’s, Jesus
