Do They Know It's Christmas?

It's Christmas time

There's no need to be afraid

At Christmas time

We let in light and we banish hate

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

Oh 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 dreaded fear

Where the only water flowing is the bitter sting of tears

And the Christmas bells that ring 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 Christmas time

The greatest gift they'll get this year is life

Where nothing ever grows

No rain or rivers flow

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, let them know it's Christmas time

And feed the world, let them know it's Christmas time

And feed the world, let them know it's Christmas time

And feed the world, let them know it's Christmas time
