And the darkness where we hide
Red is the color of the precious blood
That flowed from our Savior’s side
His sorrow is the deepest blue
And purple, the bruises on his face
White for His purifying love
And transcending grace
Our rebirth in Him is as pink
As any babe newborn
Green is the color of our growth in Him
Learning from morn to morn
Gray is for the shadowland
Where we all live now
And the winding, narrow path
We tread is a dirty brown
On this life down here
Yellow for the golden crowns
We will cast at feet so dear
Let all who see these colors know
That all who seek His face
Will receive His mercy,
Regardless of their race
Their past beliefs matter not
Nor sins and tasks undone—
For all can know the wonder of
New life through the death of the Son.
