It's Christmas time there's no need to be afraid
F G C
At Christmas time we let in light and we banish shade
F G C F
And in our world of plenty we can spread a smile of joy
F G C
Throw your arms around the world at Christmas time
F G C
But say a prayer pray for the others ones
F G C
At Christmas time it's hard but when your having fun
F G C F
There's a world outside your window and it's a world of dread and fear
G C F
Where the only water flowing is the bitter sting of tears
G C Am
And the Christmas bells that ring out are the clanging chimes of doom
Dm7 G C
Well tonight thank God it's them instead of you!!
CHORUS:
F G C
And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmas time
F G C
The greatest gift they'll get this year is life
F G C F
Where nothing ever grows, no rain or rivers flow
Dm7 G C
Do they know it's Christmas time at all?
Am Em
Here's to you raise a glass for everyone
Am Em
Here's to them underneath that burning sun
Dm7 F C
Do they know its Christmas time at all?
C F C F G C
Feed the world let them know it's X-mas time.
