IT'S CHRISTMAS TIME
AND 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 HAVIN' 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 CLANGIN'
CHIMES OF DOOM
WELL, TONIGHT WE'RE REACHIN'
OUT AND TOUCHIN' YOU
BRING PEACE AND JOY
THIS CHRISTMAS TO WEST AFRICA
A SONG OF HOPE
WHERE THERE'S
NO HOPE TONIGHT
OOH... OOH-OOH
WHY IS COMFORT 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'D 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
