Something that’s been going on –
Going on for way too long,
And it’s nothing short of a disgrace.
To judge by the color of skin
Is hatred and blatant sin.
In God’s Kingdom it has no place.
Have we even read His Word?
It’s like we’ve never heard
The sixteenth verse of John three.
For God so loved us all,
Jesus Christ paid for all.
Are there exceptions that you see?
God loves the color of all faces.
He lovingly created all races
To live in harmony and peace.
So, hatred has no place
To those who live by faith.
How can we not all agree?
Have we read Matthew twenty-two?
Where Christ commands us to do,
To love God and love each other.
How can we deny His command
When we see the holes in His hands?
Such sin should make us shudder.
It’s all ignorance and evil
At the leading of the devil.
Who hates all that God creates.
Why don’t we choose to listen
To the holy One who has given
So great a mercy by His grace?
If one person would just step up,
Deny hate and choose to love.
Then our hearts might finally see.
The color that God sees in us
Is the red blood of Jesus
That forgives us and sets us free.
Brothers and sisters let’s unite
To join the good and just fight
And follow our Lord to the cross.
Let go of what’s been forgiven.
Dispense the grace we’re given.
And love every color that’s lost.
Then the world will finally see
A change they can truly believe
And turn to God’s mercy and grace.
They’ll see God does love us all
If we choose to answer His call
In His Kingdom racism has no place.
