People we can end this year better than it began
Take both hands extend and help a next man stand
To walk a mile in those shoes wouldn't be no dry land
While we can choose we gotta draw a line in the sand
Give and let live
This is an S-O-S, Paradise has disappeared!
Without a warning generations no longer here
We're watching the news and we're feeling bemused
Words cannot explain this world lost in pain
Now is the time we cannot tarry anymore
Let's gather together for the world
While we can choose! Gather together. Give for someone to live
While we can choose! Let's come together. Together we can give and let live
Give and let live [Give and let somebody live]
Give and let live [All our brothers and sisters around the world]
Give and let live [Give and let live] Give and let live
Here on a distant shore as we go about our day
We hear your voices calling out from far away
There's no excuse and you won't be refused
Whatever we can do we'll do to help you through
Now is the time we cannot tarry anymore
Let's gather together for the world
While we can choose! Gather together. Give for someone to live
While we can choose! Let's come together. Together we can give and let live
Give and let live [Give and let somebody live]
Give and let live [All our brothers and sisters around the world]
Give and let live [Give and let live] Give and let live
If there's a message from water it oughta afford an opportunity
for the rest of humanity to pause and reflect
Does catastrophe follow our own disrepect for life,
If so, still time to put it right
While we can choose! Gather together. Give for someone to live
While we can choose! Let's come together. Together we can give and let live
Give and let live [Give and let somebody live]
Give and let live [All our brothers and sisters around the world]
Give and let live [Give and let live] Give and let live
We hope one day we'll see the smiles upon your faces again
Just like the rising morning sun we'll see you smiling again
