Update: What do you think about a new, modern version of WE ARE THE WORLD, featuring yesterday and today's top recording artists? Here are the lyrics...

There comes a time When we hear 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 day by day
That someone, somewhere 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

Send them your heart
So they'll know that someone cares
And their lives will be stronger and free
As God has shown us by turning stones 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, well let us realize oh! that a 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

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


We are the world
(are the world)
We are the children
(are the children)
We are the ones who’ll make a brighter day so lets start giving
(so let's start giving)
There’s a choice we’re makin’
We’re savin’ our own lives
It’s true we’ll make a brighter day, just you and me
ohh let me hear you!!!

(Repeat til fade)

There was a song sang at the opening of the 1984 at the Olympics in Los Angeles. "Reach out and touch somebodies Hand" Make this a better place if you can....

We are the world is a good song but its been used. I think "What I've Done" by Linkin Park is a great one. Its beautiful and it talks about everything that charity one is about. Plus it doesn't hurt that it can attract even the youth to want to be apart of charity one or any kind of charity. A way of changing lives for the better.

How about "Give A Little Bit" by Supertramp???

Lyrics:

Give a little bit
Give a little bit of your love to me
Give a little bit
Ill give a little bit of my love to you
Theres so much that we need to share
So send a smile and show you care

Ill give a little bit
Ill give a little bit of my life for you
So give a little bit
Give a little bit of your time to me
See the man with the lonely eyes
Take his hand, youll be surprised

Give a little bit
Give a little bit of your love to me
Ill give a little bit of my life for you
Nows the time that we need to share
So find yourself, were on our way back home

Going home
Dont you need to feel at home?
Oh yeah, we gotta sing

Hi Everyone,
I'm new to this group & kind of jumping right in here, but I really was intrigued by this topic, so here goes . . :-)

I really like the the "We are the World," and definitely "Imagine," too. I haven't heard some of the others , but they all do seem to fit with the goal of what is trying to be conveyed here. So, wow, what a tough decision!!! Here is one of my favorites I think speaks out that "there are answers" (hope) for all, as well. :-)


Much Love,
Audrey Louise

I agree that this song would truly be a connector. You can use virtually any part of it and have intro music. It does not hurt that reaching out to all ages is possible.
