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    Put your arms around the world    at Christmas time       But say a prayer,    for all of 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 only bells that ring there    are the clanging chimes of doom    Well tonight thank God it's them    instead of you       There won't be snow in Africa this Christmas time    The greatest gift they'll get this year is life(Oooh)    Where nothing ever grows    Never rain or never flows   Do they know it's Christmas time at all?       Here's to you raise a glass for everyone    Here's to them underneath that burning sun    Do they know it's Christmas time at all?       Feed the world    Feed the world    Feed the world    Let them know it's Christmas time again       Feed the world    Let them know it's Christmas time (a bunch of times)   (a bunch of thank you's)
