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 shade

And in our world of plenty
We can spread a smile of joy
Put your arms around the world at Christmas time

There's a world outside your window
And it's a world of dread and fear
Do they know it's Christmas time at all?

Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmas time again
Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmas time again
Let them know, let them know
Let them know it's Christmas time again

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 Christmas time
The greatest gift they'll get this year is life, ooh
Where nothing ever grows
No rain nor rivers flow (No rain, no rivers flow)
Do they know it's Christmas time at all?

Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmas time again
Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmas time again
Let them know, let them know
It's Christmas time again

Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmas time again
Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmas time again
