When we look around the world
When we read the paper
What we see is a deepening despair

So much fear and hurt
We don't even trust our neighbors
It's as if we've been instructed not to care

But still something in us sterns
Still we send some invitation
A feeling that we cannot quite explain

It's a whisper of the heart
Not guilt or obligation
An awareness that deep down we're all the same

Lately the world seems headed for a fatal fall
But still there's one way we will make it after all

UNITE!
For compassion, for connection, for forgiveness

UNITE!
For inspiration, education, peace and justice

UNITE!
Together we can make a better life, for all of human kind
If you and I unite

For the first time we know
That there is no separation
If it happens anywhere, it matters here

There's so much reason to hope
For a regeneration
If we hold our global vision crystal clear

'Cause with a smallest kindness the healing starts
And we can make a difference, right where we are

UNITE!
For compassion, for connection, for forgiveness

UNITE!
For inspiration, education, peace and justice

UNITE!
Together we can make a better life, for all of human kind
If you and I unite

There's a baby hungry
There's a mother thirsty
There's a man with AIDS and no doctor, no pills

There's a child left homeless
Without any hope at all
-- No hope at all

There's a village dying
There's a drought unending
There's a country in relentless civil war

They're so many people who know millions of people
Wondering what life is for
They do not dare to dream anymore

So...

Now is the time
Let's hit the ground running
The world is crying out to try something new

Only hand-in-hand we'll find
That a brighter day is coming
This is the most important work we'll ever do

'Cause a gift of love is made to last
And there's no greater giving than giving back

UNITE!
For compassion, for connection, for forgiveness

UNITE!
For inspiration, education, peace and justice

UNITE!
Together we can make a better life, for all of human kind
If you and I unite

UNITE!
Every man and every woman, every child

UNITE!
Every color, every country, every tribe

UNITE!
It doesn't matter who you are, or what you do

UNITE!
Just come along and be a part of something true

UNITE!
Together we can make a better life for all of human kind
If you and I unite
