When the world must come together as one 
           C#m7 
There are people dying 
         G#m                           A 
And it's time to lend a hand to life

As God has shown us by turning stones to bread 
          A               F#m              A/B 
So we all      must lend a helping hand

               C                         D                     E 
But if your just believe there's no way we can fall
