Brothers! (halle hallelujah) I say brothers! (hallelujah)
Now you got yourself Two good hands (halle hallelujah)
And when your brother is troubled,
you got to reach out your one hand for him (hallelujah)

And when your heart is troubled, you gotta reach out your other hand (hallelujah) 
Reach it out to the Man up there 'cause that's what He's there for (halle hallelujah
