Reach out and touch somebody's hand
Make this a better place if you can
Reach out and touch somebody's hand
Make this world a better place if you can (just try)

Take a little time out of your busy day
To give encouragement to someone who's lost the way (just try)
Or would I be talking to a stone if I asked you to
Share a problem that's not your own
Whe can change things if you start giving, why don't you

Reach out and touch somebody's hand
Make this a better place if you can
Reach out and touch somebody's hand
Make this world a better place if you can (just try)

If you see an old friend on the street and he's down
Remember his shoes could fit your feet (just try)
Try a little kindness and you'll see
It's something that comes very naturally
We can change things if we start giving, why don't you

Reach out and touch somebody's hand
Reach out and touch somebody's hand
Make this world a better place if you can.
