There comes a time when we heed a certain call
DO RE SOLWhen the world must come together as one
MImThere are people dying
And it's time to lend a hand to live, The greatest gift of all
We can't go on pretending day by day
DO RE SOLThat someone, somewhere will soon make a change
MIm REWe are 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 lets start giving
MIm REThere's a choice we're making, We're saving our own lives
DO RE SOLIt's true we'll make a better day, just you and me
SOL DO RE SOL
Send them your heart so they'll know that someone cares
DO RE SOL
And their lives will be stronger and free
MIm RE
As God has shown us by turning stones to bread
DO RESo we all must lend a helping hand
Repeat Chorus:
DOm RE SOLWhen you're down and out, there seems no hope at all
DOm RE SOLBut if your just believe there's no way we can fall
Let us realize that a change can only come
DO REWhen we stand together as one
