Do They Know It's Christmas

Do They Know It's Christmas - Judith Alegarbes

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

Throw your arms around the world at Christmas-time

But say a prayer pray for the other ones

At Christmas-time 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 door

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

Oh

Where nothing ever grows

No rain or rivers flow

Do they know it's Christmas-time at all

Here's to you

Raise a glass for ev'ryone

Here's to them underneath that burning sun

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

Feed the world

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

Feed the world

Let them know it's Christmas-time again
