LESSON #31
- It's Christmas time, there's no need to be afraidAt Christmas time, we let in light and we banish shadeAnd in our world of plenty we can spread a smile of joyThrow your arms around the world at Christmas time.But say a prayer, Pray for the other onesAt Christmas time it's hard, but when you're having funThere's a world outside your windowAnd it's a world of dread and fearWhere the only water flowingIs the bitter sting of tearsAnd the Christmas bells that ringThere are the clanging chimes of doomWell tonight thank God it's them instead of youAnd there won't be snow in Africa this Christmas timeThe greatest gift they'll get this year is lifeWhere nothing ever growsNo rain nor rivers flowDo they know it's Christmas time at all?Here's to youRaise a glass for everyoneSpare a thought this yuletide for the deprivedIf the table was turned would you survive?Here's to themUnderneath that burning sunYou ain't gotta feel guilt just selflessGive a little help to the helplessDo they know it's Christmas time at all?Feed the worldFeed the worldFeed the worldFeed the worldFeed the worldLet them know it's Christmas time againFeed the worldLet them know it's Christmas time againFeed the worldLet them know it's Christmas time againFeed the worldLet them know it's Christmas time againFeed the worldFeed the worldFeed the worldFeed the worldFeed the worldFeed the world(Feed the world)Feed the worldFeed the worldSource: Musixmatch.
