We are the World & Luke 4:1-13

I'm really surprised that no-one caught this lyric error in the song "We are the World"  written by Michael Jackson and Lionel Ritchie in time before the recording of the song.

Willie Nelson sang that non-Scriptural verse in "We are the World" years ago.

His verse was "As God has shown us,  by turning stone to bread".

That NEVER happened.

Read Luke 4:1-13.

Colossians 2:6-8 is also recommended.

I think someone did notice the error in the lyrics.  A Gospel choir singing at a Michael Jackson tribute event in Gary, Indiana changed those lyrics in their performance.  

It would be nice if I could find video from that performance (those Gary, Indiana tributes had some wonderful moments).   Feel free to comment below if you know of any Youtube, etc. links to those performances.
