Pick a learning view.
It’s Christ mas time,
there’s no need to be a fraid.
At Christ mas time,
we let in light and we ban ish shade.
And in our world
of plen ty we can spread a smile of joy.
Throw your arms a round the world at Christ mas time.
But say a prayer
to pray for the oth er ones
at Christ mas time.
It’s hard, but when you’re hav ing fun,
there’s a world out side your win dow and it’s a world of dread and fear
where the on ly wa ter flow ing is the bit ter sting of tears.
And the Christ mas bells that ring there are the clang ing chimes of doom.
Well, to night thank God it’s them in stead of you.
And there won’t be snow in Af ri ca this Christ mas time.
The great est gift they’ll get this year is life.
Oh,
where noth ing ev er grows,
no rain or riv ers flow.
Do they know it’s Christ mas time at all?
Here’s to you, raise a glass for ev ’ry one; here’s to them un der neath that burn ing sun.
Do they know it’s Christ mas time at all?
Feed the world,
let them know it’s Christ mas time a gain.
the world,
let them know it’s Christ mas time a Christ mas time a gain.
