Do they know it's christmas time Lyrics

It's Christmas time

There's no need to be afraid

At Christmas time

We let in light and we banish shade



And in our world of plenty

We can spread a smile of joy

Throw your arms around the world

At Christmas time



But say a prayer

Pray for the other ones

At Christmas time



It's hard

But when you're having fun

There's a world outside your window

And it's a world of dread and fear



Where the only water flowing is

The bitter sting of tears



And the Christmas bells that ring there

Are the clanging chimes of doom



Well tonight thank God it's them instead of you



And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmastime

The greatest gift they'll get this year is life (Ooh)

Where nothing ever grows, no rain or rivers flow

Do they know it's Christmastime at all?



(Ooh)



Here's to you, raise a glass for everyone

Here's to them, underneath that burning sun

Do they know it's Christmastime at all?



Feed the world

Feed the world



Feed the world

Let them know it's Christmastime again

Feed the world

Let them know it's Christmastime again
