There comes a time
when we heed
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
That someone
someway 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
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
Woh 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
there's no way
we can fall
Well, well, well, well
let's realise
oh that in time
children will come
When we stand
together as one
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
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
We are the world
We are the children
We are the ones
who make a better 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
Ah let me hear ya
We are the world
We are the children
We are the ones
who make a better day
so let's start giving
There's a choice

our own lives
