There comes a time
When we heard a certain call
When the world
Must come together as one
There are people dying
And it's time to lend a hand to life
The greatest gift at all
We can't go on pretending day by day
That someone somewhere will soon make a change
We are the 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 are making
We are saving our own lives
It's true we'll make a better day, Just you and me
Send them your heart
So they'll know that someone cares
And there's life 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
There's a choice we are making
We are 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
Through your lives
All many times to we go
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 are making
We are 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 are making
We are 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 are making
We are 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 are making
We are 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
