There comes a time, when we hear 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 of all

We can´t go on pretending day by day
That someone, somewhere will soon make change
We are all a part of God´s great big family
And the truth you know
Love is all we need

chorus:
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

Send them your heart so they´ll 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

When you´re down and out, there seems no hope at all
But if you believe there´s no way we can fall
Let us realize that a change can only come
When we stand together as one.
