The News Tonight – Beauty Saves the World this Christmas!
Beauty speaks to the power within
And wakens her to being
Beauty speaks to the power that kneels
And calls her to be freeing
Beauty speaks to the power that pushes
And tells it to be wary
Beauty speaks to the powers that Be
And that’s when she gets scary!
To the human heart, to the worshipping soul
To the world of Corporate Kings
The Beautiful One reveals Himself
Divested of all things
He is Kalokagathia-
“Both Beautiful and Good”
And innocent
And powerless
And in our Hands
For good.
May we make fresh use of powerlessness:
Held in hands that heal
And be shaken and stirred by the only news
That God and His Love are real;
That the Powerful one became vulnerable
And even Bread and Wine
That we might be strong in His weakness;
Intimate, Glorious, Loved
And Divine.
Sarah de Nordwall
· Kalokagathia is a Greek term that implies the elision of beauty and goodness
