Do They Know It's Christmas Time (1)

I found a really good song from youtube and the title of the song is Do They Know It's Christmas Time. Here's the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8jEnTSQStGE

Here are the words for the song:

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, to pray for the other ones, at Christmas time, it's hard, but when you're having fun, there's a world outside your window, and it's a world of dread and fear, where the only water flowing, is the bitter sting of tears, and the Christmas bells that rang there, are the clanging chimes of doom, well tonight thank god it's them, instead of you. And there won't be now in Africa this Christmas time, the greatest gift they'll get this year is life, ohhh, where nothing ever grows, no rain or river flow, do they know it's Christmas time at all? Here's to you raise a glass for everyone, here's to them underneath that burning sun, do they know it's Christmas time at all? Feed the world, Feed the world, Feed the world, let them know it's Christmas time, Feed the world, let them know it's Christmas time, Feed the world, let them know it's Christmas time, Feed the world, let them know it's Christmas time, Feed the world, let them know it's Christmas time, Feed the world, let them know it's Christmas time, Feed the world, let them know it's Christmas time again.
