We Are the World Lyrics

There comes a time
When we hear a certain call
When the world must come together as one
There are people dying
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
somewhere will soon make a change
We are 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 to make a brighter day
So let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lifes
It's true, we're making better days
just you and me
Show them 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
So we all must lend a helping hand

We are the world, we are the children
We are the ones to make a brighter day
So let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lifes
It's true, we're making better days
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
Let us realize that a change can only come
When we stand together as one

We are the world, we are the children
We are the ones to make a brighter day
So let's start giving
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lifes
It's true, we're making better days
just you and me
