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, 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
 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
 Spare a thought this yuletide for the deprived
 If the table was turned would you survive
 Here's to them
 Underneath that burning sun
 You ain't gotta feel guilt just selfless
 Give a little help to the helpless
 Do they know it's Christmastime at all?
 Feed the world
 Feed the world
 Feed the world
 Feed the world
 Let them know it's Christmastime again
 Feed the world
