We can鈥檛 go on pretending day by dayThat someone, somewhere will soon make a changeWe are all a part of God鈥檚 great big familyAnd the truth, you know, love is all we need
We are the world, we are the childrenWe are the ones to make a brighter daySo let鈥檚 start givingThere鈥檚 a choice we鈥檙e makingWe鈥檙e sin gour own lives, it鈥檚 trueWe make better days, just you and me
Send them your heartSo they鈥檒l know that someone caresAnd their lives will be stronger and freeAs God has shown us by turning stone to breadSo we all must lend a helping hand
We are the world...
When you鈥檙e down and outThere seems no hope at allBut if you just believeThere鈥檚 no way we can fall
Let us realize that a change will only comeWhen we stand together as one
We are the world...
