THE COLOR OF LOVE
That yellow-bellied snake in Eden,
A green-eyed monster became.
The blackness of sin came into the world,
Through Satan, the serpent’s name.
Sin-blackened hearts only make us blue,
So hate sin with a purple passion.
If you want your heart to be tickled pink,
Remember, Christ offers full salvation.
A colorful arch in the sky,
Reminds us the earth God won’t flood.
Our sins are now drowned in a crimson sea;
When they’re baptized into Christ’s blood.
To make our hearts as white as snow,
Christ came from heaven above,
To bear our stripes and shed His blood;
That’s why red is the color of love.
Now we can enter those pearly gates,
To a jeweled mansion, I’m told.
And while angels strum upon their harps,
We’ll walk on streets of gold.
