Red  is the color of the blood that flowed down the face  of
someone  who loves us so
 He's the perfect man, he's the Lord's own son, he's the Lamb  of
God,  he's the only one
 That can give  us life,  that can make us grow,
 That can make  the love  between us flow.
Blue  is the color of a heart so cold, it will  not bend  when
 the story's told
 Of the love of God for a sinful race, of the blood  that flowed
 down Jesus face
 That can give  us life,  that can make us grow,
 That can keep  our hearts  from growing cold.
Gold  is the color of the morning sun, that shines  so freely
 an every one
 It's the sun above that that keeps us warm, it's the son  of
love,  that calms the storm
 That can give  us life,  that can make us grow,
 That can turn  our mornings  into gold.
Brown  is the color of the autumn leaves, when the winter
comes  to the barren trees
 There is birth, there is death, there is a plan, and there's just
 one God,  and there's just one man
 That can give  us life,  that can make us grow,
 That can make  our sins  as white as snow
 That can give  us life,  that can make us grow,  That can
turn  our mornings  into gold.
 That can give  us life,  that can make us grow,  That can
keep  our hearts  from growing cold.
 That can give  us life,  that can make us grow,  That can
make  the love  between us flow.
