There comes a time
When we hear a certain call
When the world must come together
As one
There are people dying
Oh when its time to lend a hand
To life
The greatest gift of all
We can’t go on
Pretending day by day
That someone, somehow
Will soon make a change
We are all a part of
God’s great big family
And it’s true
You know love is all we need
[Chorus:]
We are the world
We are the children
We are the ones who make a better 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 know that someone cares
So their cries for help will not be in vain
We can let them suffer
No we cannot turn away
Right now, they need a helping hand
(Haitian)
[Chorus] {with artist solos}
When you’re down and out
And there seems no hope at all
But if you just believe
There’s nowhere we can fall
Well, well, well, let us realize oh that a change can only come
When we stand together as one
[Chorus] x4 {with artist solos}
We all need somebody that we can lean on
When you wake up look around and see that your dream’s gone
When the earth quakes, we’ll help you make it through the storm
When the floor breaks, a magic carpet to stand on
We are the world, united by love so strong
When the radio isn’t on you can hear this song
A guided light on the dark road you’re walking on
A signpost to find the dreams you thought was gone
Someone to help you move the obstacles you stumbled on
Someone to help you rebuild after the rubble’s gone
We are the world, connected by a common bond:
LOVE
The whole planet’s singing along
(Haitian)
[Chorus] x2 {with artist solos}
Everyday Citizens
Everybody pitching in
Nou se mond la
Nou se timoun yo
You and I x2
Uh 12 days no water
Whats your will to live?
We amplify the love we watching multiply
Feeling like the Worlds end
We can make the World win
Like Katrina, Africa, Indonesia
And now Haiti needs us, the need us, they need us
[Chorus - All]
Haiti, Haiti, Ha, Ha, ha, ha, ha
Haiti, Haiti, Ha, Ha, ha, ha, ha
Haiti, Haiti, Ha, Ha, ha, ha, ha
