Sojourners, the US biblical truth and justice group, have been getting an ickle Christmasy. On their God's Politics Blog you can find daily reflections through advent from Diana Bulter Bass. They are also advocating "A Peace and Justice Christmas" which the was what "the subversive sing-a-long" email I got from them today was advocating. It said, "In the spirit of a joyful, Christ-centered Christmas, we've even written a carol for a subversive sing-along. Who said doing justice had to be boring or serious?! So, clear your throat and join us in a rousing chorus of: “Have Yourself a Peace and Justice Christmas” (to the tune of "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas”). Have Yourself a Peace and Justice Christmas Have yourself a peace and justice Christmas, Set your heart a-right. Flee the malls and focus on Christ’s guiding light. Have yourself a peace and justice Christmas, Give your time a way. Share God’s love, And serve “the least of these” today. Here we are, as we pray for peace, We’ll live simply and give more. We care for those far and near to us, Which brings cheer to us, once more. God brings down The haughty from high places, And lifts up the low. God cares for the hungry and the humble, so – Forget the stress and let the peace and justice flow! " Wonder if it's what they'll be singing around Beyond's beach hut.
