Children of the world

Ah...
 
What can we do now? – The river's run dry
What can we do now? – The crops are all dyin'
What can we do for the children of the world?
 
What can we do now? – The cupboard is bare
And what can we do for our friends in despair?
And what can we do for the children of the world?
 
Let's lend a helping hand (The children)
Let's give those kids a chance (The children)
A little love and understanding for the children of the world
 
How many times must a hungry child cry
And how many more helpless children must die
Before there's an answer for the children of the world? (The children)
The children of the world (The children)
The children of the world (The children)
The children of the world
 
We're all livin' under one heaven
And we share in that very same sun
So let's open our hearts for everyone in need
 
Mmm... what can we do now? – The cupboard is bare
And let's not stand by and pretend they're not there
Let's all lend a hand to the children of the world
 
Let's lend a helping hand (The children)
Let's give those kids a chance (The children)
A little love and understanding for the children of the world
 
Let's lend a helping hand (The children)
Let's give those kids a chance (The children)
A little love and understanding for the children of the world
 
The children of the world
