We Are The World (made popular by U.S.A. For Africa) [vocal version]

There comes a time when we heed 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

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

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 hearts

So they'll know that someone cares

And their lives will be stronger and free

'Cause God has shown us by turning stones to bread

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

And 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

And there seems no hope at all

But if you just believe

There's no way we can fall

Well, well, well, let's realize

Oh, that 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

Yeah, 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
