We are the world. There comes a time when we must come together as one to lend a hand to those in need. People are dying and it's time to help save lives, which is the greatest gift of all. We cannot pretend that change will happen without action. We are all part of God's family and love is what we need. The song encourages working together to make a brighter future and send help to those who need it. Standing as one is the only way real change can happen.
