We Are the World

Music: Michael Joe Jackson/Lionel B. Richie/Jr. There comes a time when we hear a certain call   When the world must come together as one There are people dying   Oh, and it's time to lend a hand to life The greatest gift of all       We can't go on pretending day by day   Someone, somewhere will soon make a change We're 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 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       Well, 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 stone 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 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         When you're down and out     There seems no hope at all   But if you just believe    No way we can fall Well, well, well, let's realize   That one change can only come   When we stand together as one yeah yeah yeah yeah 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 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 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 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 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 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
