When the world must come together as one.
There are people dying
and it's time to lend a hand To life -
the greatest gift of all.
We can't go on pretending day by day
That someone somewhere will soon make a change.
We are all a part of God's 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 let's start giving.
There's a choice we're making
we're saving our own lives. It's true
we make a better days
just you and me.
Send them 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
so we all must lend a helping hand.
We are the world ...
When you're down and out
There seems no hope at all
But if you just believe
There's no way we can fall
Let us realize that a
Change will only come
When we stand together as one.
