We Are The World

[anwiii 17]

i was talking to someone recently who never heard this song and it inspired me to post it because i know there are so many people out there that haven't heard it yet. it came out in january 1985 and raised over 60 million dollars for charity for africa and the u.s.

it's true i don't post songs very often, but this song has a lot of meaning behind it and very inspirational. the recording was a prelude to the live aide concert done in the summer of 1985 on three seperare continents which also rasied millions of dollars for africa. this concert was live and was shown around the world where the top musicians and artists of our time stood on one stage.

i hope you enjoy it. the words are below the video!

We Are The World
There comes a time when we need 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, somehow will soon make a change
We're 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 you your heart
So they know that someone cares
And their lives will be stronger and free
As God has shown us
By turning stone to bread
And 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
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
There seems no hope at all
But if you just believe
There's no way we can fall
Well, well, well, let's realize
That one change can only come
When we stand together as one

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

on a second note, i have the original live aide cd's. another great original song included on disc one which everyone should watch and listen to is, "do they know it's christmas?" which i believe inspired "we are the world" and the live aid concert for africa. i have posted the video and the lyrics below.

It's Christmas timeThere's no need to be afraid
At Christmas time
We let in light and we banish shade
And in our world of plenty
We can spread a smile of joy
Throw your arms around the world
At Christmas time

But say a prayer
Pray for the other ones
At Christmas time it's hard
But when you're having fun
There's a world outside your window
And it's a world of dread and fear
Where the only water flowing
Is the bitter sting of tears
And the Christmas bells that ring there
Are the clanging chimes of doom
Well tonight thank God it's them instead of you

And there won't be snow in Africa
This Christmas time
The greatest gift they'll get this year is life
Where nothing ever grows
No rain nor rivers flow
Do they know it's Christmas time at all?

BRIDGE:
(Here's to you) raise a glass for everyone
(Here's to them) underneath that burning sun
Do they know it's Christmas time at all?

END:
Feed the world
Feed the world
Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmas time again
Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmas time again

i hope you enjoy this post and i hope it may inspire people to think of others and to lend a hand now and then to those who need one
