Lyrics

[Verse 1]
There comes a time
When we head a certain call
When the world must come together as one
There are people dying
Whoa, and it's time to lend a hand
To life, the greatest gift of all
[Verse 2]
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 family
And the truth, love is all we need
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
Whoa, send them your heart
So you 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
[Verse 5]
We are the world (We are the world)
We are the children (We are the children, yeah)
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
[Verse 6]
Yeah
Now when you're down and out
There seems no hope at all
But if you just believe
There's no way we can fall
No, no, no just realize
Oh, that a change can only come
When we stand together as one
[Verse 7]
We are the world (We are the world)
We are the children (We are the children)
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So let's start giving (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
[Verse 8]
We are the world (We are the world)
We are the children (We are the children)
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So let's start giving (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
[Verse 9]
We are the world (We are the world)
We are the children (We are the children)
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So let's start giving (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 (Yeah)
[Verse 10]
We are the world (We are the world)
We are the children (We are the children)
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So let's start giving (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
