Earth, Wind & Fire — Touch the World

She walks with a beat as she works the street In the dead of night She's been laid off and her kids must eat And his money's right A world away beneath the sun The earth goes dry A hungry starving people search for food As their babies die (As their babies die) [Chorus] I tell you, we can touch the world When we meet them at their need We can touch them where they are Help them to believe Touch the world He's on the pipe and he's got the shakes As he takes a puff Their badges shine and there's no escape As they lock him up (Lord, have mercy) Fourteen years old and without love The girl's livin' wild How can it be a four month pregnancy? And she's the child [Chorus] I tell you, we can touch the world When we meet them at their need We can touch them where they are So, help them to believe [Bridge] Around the globe people need to know The answer's theirs today Some way, somehow We must let them know That God gives hope and Jesus is the way Help them to believe [Chorus] We can touch the world When we meet them at their need We can touch them where they are Help them to believe Touch the world There's a boy out there Strung out on crack Gonna take all we have To bring the boy on back People search for food Without a home Gotta let them know That they're not alone Touch the world Yeah, yeah, oh, yeah When we meet them at their needs, yeah Yeah, yeah, oh, yeah Help them to believe We can touch the world We can touch them where they are Help them to believe
