There comes a time when we need
a certain call
When the world must come
together as one
There are people dying
Oh and it's time to lend a hand
to life
The greatest gift of all
We can't go on
pretending day by day
someone some will soon
make a change
We're 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'll make a better day
Just you and me
Well send'em 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 let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day
Just you and me
When you're down and out
There seems no hope at all
But if you just believe
no way we can fall
Well well well well let's realize
That one change can only come
When we stand together as one
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'll make a better
day Just you and me
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'll make a better
day Just you and me
