There comes a time
When we hear the 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 by day
That someone somewhere will soon make a change
We are all 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 them your heart
So they know that someone cares
And their lives will be stronger and free
As god has shown us by turning stones to bread
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
And 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 and there's no hope at all
If you just believe there's no way we can fall
Let's realize I wanna 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 so
Let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
