There comes a time
When we heed a certain call
When the world must come together as one
There are people dying
Oh, and its time to lend a hand to life
The greatest gift of all
We cant go on
Pretending day-by-day
That someone, somewhere soon make a change
Were all a part of Gods 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 lets start giving
Theres a choice were making
Were saving our own lives
Its true well make a better day, just you and me
Oh, 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
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 lets start giving
Oh, theres a choice were making
Were saving our own lives
Its true well make a better day, just you and me
When youre down and out, there seems no hope at all
But if you just believe theres no way we can fall
Well, well, well, well let us realize
Oh, that a change can only come
When we stand together as one, yeah, yeah, yeah
