We Are the World Lyrics
There comes a time when we heed a certain call (Lionel Richie)
When the world must come together as one (Lionel Richie & Stevie Wonder)
There are people dying (Stevie Wonder)
Oh, and it's time to lend a hand to life (Paul Simon)
The greatest gift of all (Paul Simon/Kenny Rogers)
We can't go on pretending day by day (Kenny Rogers)
That someone, somehow will soon make a change (James Ingram)
We're all a part of God's great big family (Tina Turner)
And the truth (Billy Joel)
You know love is all we need (Tina Turner/Billy Joel)
We are the world, we are the children
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So let's start giving (Michael Jackson)
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives (Diana Ross)
It's true we'll make a better day just you and me (Michael Jackson/Diana Ross)
Well, send'em you your heart so they know that someone cares (Dionne Warwick)
And their lives will be stronger and free (Dionne Warwick/Willie Nelson)
As God has shown us by turning stone to bread (Willie Nelson)
And so we all must lend a helping hand (Al Jurreau)
We are the world, we are the children (Bruce Springsteen)
We are the ones who make a brighter day
So let's start giving (Kenny Logins)
There's a choice we're making
We're saving our own lives (Steve Perry)
It's true we'll make a better day just you and me (Daryl Hall)
When you're down and out there seems no hope at all (Michael Jackson)
But if you just believe there's no way we can fall (Huey Lewis)
Well, well, well, let's realize that a change can only come (Cyndi Lauper)
When we (Kim Carnes)
Stand together as one (Kim Carnes/Cyndi Lauper/Huey Lewis)
We are the world, we are the children...
Meaning of We Are the World
“We Are the World” powerfully conveys a desperate plea for global unity and action in response to widespread famine, primarily focusing on Africa. The artists, a collective of iconic voices, express profound sorrow over human suffering – “There are people dying” – urging listeners to acknowledge their shared humanity as part of “God’s great big family.” The song champions the idea that love and compassion represent the ultimate solution, encouraging immediate assistance through “giving” and emphasizing personal responsibility: “We are the ones who make a brighter day.” Fueled by an emotional urgency, the repeated refrain "We are the world" serves as a rallying cry, demanding collective action to prevent despair and ultimately, save lives. Ultimately, the song’s message is one of hope, resilience, and the belief that through combined effort, a better future can be forged for all children.
