Do They Know It's Christmas? (2004 Version)

It's Christmas time

There's no need to be afraid

At christmas time

We let in light and 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

Where the Christmas bells that are ringing

Are the clanging chimes of Doom

Well tonight thank God it's them istead of you

And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmas time

The greatest gift they'll get this year is life

Ohh

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 everyone

Here's to them

Underneath that burning sun

Do they know it's Christmas time at all

Feed the world

Feed the world

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

Feed the world

Feed the world

Feed the world

Feed the world

Feed the world
