....There comes a time. When we head 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 a change
We are all a part of. God's great big family
And the truth, you know love is all we need

[CH] 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
--- ( 2 bars )
Oh! 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 stone to bread
So we all must lend a helping hand

[CH] 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

[Bridge]
When you're down and out. There seems no hope at all
But if you just believe. There's no way we can fall
Well, well, well, well, let us realize
That a change will only come. When we stand together as one

[CH 2X] 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.............
