Its Christmas time, theres no need to be afraid
at christmas time, we live in light and we banish shade

but in our world of plenty, we should spread a smile of joy!
Through your arms around the world at christmas time

so save a tear - pray for the other ones
at christmas time, its hard but when your having fun
theres a world outside your window
its a world of dreaded fear
where the only water flowing is a 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

no there wont 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?

feed the world
feed the world
feed the world
let them know its christmas time and
feed the world
let them know its christmas time
feed the world
let them know its christmas time
