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 to 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 Oh, 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
The mood is right, the spirits up We're here tonight and that's enough Simply having a wonderful Christmastime Simply having a wonderful Christmastime
The party's on, the feeling's here That only comes this time of year Simply having a wonderful Christmastime Simply having a wonderful Christmastime
The choir of children sing their song
Ding dong, ding dong, ding dong, ding...
Simply having a wonderful Christmastime Simply having a wonderful Christmastime
The word is out, about the town To lift a glass, ah don't look down Simply having a wonderful Christmastime
The choir of children sing their song They've practiced all year long
Ding dong, ding dong, ding dong, ding...
The party's on, the spirit's up We're here tonight and that's enough Oo, simply having a wonderful Christmastime We're simply having a wonderful Christmastime
The mood is right, the spirits up We're here tonight and that's enough We're simply having a wonderful Christmastime Simply having a wonderful Christmastime Simply having a wonderful Christmastime
