While empires clash

                        authorities bully

                                    religions vaunt

                                                cultures corrupt

                                                            families hurt

                                                                        and individuals hope

In a secret shelter of wood, hay, and dung, as shepherds wonder and angels praise, the Lord Almighty is birthed in our flesh, inaugurates his holy mission, and the kingdom comes with

                                                                        Peace on earth

                                                            Love for the world

                                                Mercy offered

                                    Joy abounds

            Redemption heals

New life given
