A new sun is rising in the sky
A new light is shinning in your eyes
What the world needs now is new
What the world needs now is you

A change is a coming any day
Don’t let the moment slip away
What the world needs now is your strength
What the world needs now is your faith

There’s no time to borrow or to waste
Live for tomorrow while living today
What the world needs now is your grace
What the world needs now is the human race
