"Jesus has challenged the authority of oppressive regimes for 2000 years because love is undefeatable, justice is unavoidable, and what appears to be tiny and weak changes everything."
What oppressive regimes need to be challenged in our world today?

Herod, O Herod Have you heard the news A baby is born today To free all the captives To find the lost sheep To bring hope and peace to people in need
Oh babies May be tiny and weak And babies change the world
Caesar, O Caesar Ruler of Rome A baby is born today To feed all the hungry To share the good news To speak to the ones who have nothing to lose
Oh babies May be tiny and weak And babies change the world
Magi, O wise ones A child is growing A child whose star you have scene So follow that star The light up above To find the young boy who will teach us to love
Oh Children may be tiny and weak And children change the world
Oh Children may be tiny and weak And children change the world
Jesus was tiny and weak But Jesus changed the world
