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
And pray for the other ones
At Christmas time, it's hard, but while you're having fun
There's a world outside your window
And it's a world of dread and fear
Where a kiss of love can kill you
And there's death in every tear
And the Christmas bells that ring there
Are the clanging chimes of doom
Well, tonight we're reaching out and touching you
Bring peace and joy this Christmas to West Africa
A song of hope, and there's no hope tonight, ooh-ooh
Why is coming first to be feared?
Why is to touch to be scared?
How can they know it's Christmas time at all?
Here's to you, raise a glass to everyone
Here's to them, and all their years to come
How they know it's Christmas time at all?
Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmas time again
Feel the world
Let them know it's Christmas time again
Heal the world
Let them know it's Christmas time again
Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmas time again
Feel the world
Let them know it's Christmas time again
Heal the world
Let them know it's Christmas time again
Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmas time again
Feel the world
Let them know it's Christmas time again
Heal the world
