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
|
That someone, somehow 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 There's no way we can fall
|
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
|
