Sam Smith - Do They Know Its Christmas 2024 Ultimate Mix Lyrics

[Verse 1: Paul Young, Chris Martin & Ed Sheeran]
It's Christmas time, there's no need to be afraid
At Christmas time, we let in light and we banish shade
It's Christmas time, there's no need to be afraid
At Christmas time, we let in light and we banish shade

[Verse 2: Boy George, Dido, Sam Smith, Boy George & Rita Ora]
And in our world of plenty we can spread a smile of joy
Throw your arms around the worldat Christmas time

[Verse 3: Robbie Williams, George Michael & Paloma Faith]
But say a prayer

[Spoken Interlude: Michael Buerk]
Dawn, and as the sun breaks through the piercing chill of night on the plains outside Korem, it lights up a biblical famine, now, in the 20th century

[Verse 4: Guy Garvey, Sting & Simon LeBon]
There's a world outside your window
And it's a world of dread and fear

[Spoken Interlude: Michael Buerk]
This place, say workers hеre, is the closest thing to Hеll on Earth

[Chorus: All]
Feed the world
[Verse 5: Paloma Faith, George Michael, Robbie Williams & George Michael, Angélique Kidjo, *Robbie Williams*]
But say a prayer
But say a prayer, and pray for the other ones
At Christmastime, *at Christmastime*
It's hard but while you're having fun

[Verse 6: Sting, Simon LeBon & Tony Hadley, Sugababes, Sting, Simon LeBon, Bono & Chris Martin, Bono]
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 ring there are the clanging chimes of doom
Well, tonight, thank God, it's them instead of you
Well, tonight we're reaching out and touching you

[Verse 7: Seal & Paul Weller, Sinéad O'Connor, Joss Stone & Justin Hawkins]
Bring peace and joy this Christmas to everywhere this Christmas
The greatest gift we share each year is life is life
Why is to comfort to be feared?
Why is to touch is to be scared?
Do they know it's Christmas time at all?

[Bridge: One Direction & Olly Murs, Tom Chaplin, Guy Garvey & Justin Hawkins, Sam Smith, All]
Here's to you
Raise a glass to everyone
And here's to them
And all their years to come
Here's to them
And all their years to come
Do they know it's Christmas time?
Do they know it's Christmas time?
Do they know it's Christmas time at all?
[Chorus: All & Dizzee Rascal]
Feed the world
Feed the world
Feed the world
Spare a thought this yuletide for the deprived
If the table was turned, would you survive?
Feed the world
You ain't gotta feel guilt, just selfless
Give a little help to the helpless
Feed the world, let them know it's Christmastime again
Feed the world, let them know it's Christmastime again

[Spoken Outro: David Bowie]
It's David Bowie, over the next twelve months it's projected that well over three hundred and sixty thousand childen under the age of four will die in Ethiopia
Band Aid is a record that's been made by a lot of recording artists and stars
The proceeds will all go to Ethiopia
It would be wonderful if you could all buy copies of this record, thank you
