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

Well tonight thank God it's them

instead of you



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 or 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
