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

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
Where the only water flowing is
the bitter sting of tears
And the Christmas bells that ring
there are the clanging
chimes of doom

And there won't be snow in
Africa this Christmastime
The greatest gift they'll get this year is life
(Oooh) Where nothing ever grows
No rain nor rivers flow
Do they know it's Christmastime at all?

(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

Repeat then fade
