There comes a time when we need a certain call

When the world must come together as one

There are people dying, oh, and its time to lend a hand to life

The greatest gift of all



We cant go on pretending day by day

That someone, somewhere will soon make a change

Were all a part of Gods great big family

And the truth, you know love is all we need



We are the world

We are the children

We are the ones who make a brighter day

So lets start givin



Theres a choice were makin

Were savin our own lives

Its true, well make a better day

Just you and me



Well, send them you your heart so they know that someone cares

And their lives will be stronger and free

As God has shown us by turning stone to bread

And so we all must lend a helping hand



We are the world

We are the children

We are the ones who make a brighter day

So lets start givin



Whoa, theres a choice were makin

Were savin our own lives

Its true, well make a better day

Just you and me



When youre down and out

There seems no hope at all

But if you just believe

Theres no way we can fall



Well, well, well, let us realize

Oh, that one change can only come

When we stand together as one

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah



We are the world

We are the children

We are the ones who make a brighter day
