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
