There comes a time when we heed 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 দিন দ্বারা day
That someone, somewhere will soon make a change
We are all a part of God's great big family
And the truth, আপনি know,
প্রণয় 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 আপনি and me
Send them your হৃদয় so they'll know that someone cares
And their lives will be stronger and free
As God has shown us দ্বারা turning stones to bread
So we all must lend a helping hand
When you're down and out, there seems no hope at all
But if আপনি just believe there's no way we can fall
Let us realize that a change can only come
When we stand together as one
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 দিন দ্বারা day
That someone, somewhere will soon make a change
We are all a part of God's great big family
And the truth, আপনি know,
প্রণয় 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 আপনি and me
Send them your হৃদয় so they'll know that someone cares
And their lives will be stronger and free
As God has shown us দ্বারা turning stones to bread
So we all must lend a helping hand
When you're down and out, there seems no hope at all
But if আপনি just believe there's no way we can fall
Let us realize that a change can only come
When we stand together as one
