Do They Know It's Christmas?

It's Christmastime; there's no need to be afraid At Christmastime, 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 Christmastime But say a prayer and pray for the other ones At Christmastime 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 And 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 There won't be snow in Africa this Christmastime The greatest gift they'll get this year is life Oh, where nothing ever grows, no rain or river flows Do they know it's Christmastime at all? Here's to you, raise a glass for ev'ryone Here's to them, underneath that burning sun Do they know it's Christmastime at all?
