What color is God, Asked the child with skin so fair Is he white like me, Does he have light hair? Is God dark like me, Asked the child with skin of golden hue Has He hair that's dark and curly, Are His eyes black or blue? I think God is red like me, The Indian boy is heard to say He wears a crown of feathers And turns our nights to day Each one of us knows that God is there In all the colors above But be sure of this, the one color He is, Is the beautiful color of love So when your soul goes to Heaven, When your life comes to its end He will be waiting, and His hand to you Will He extend There will be no colors in Heaven Everyone will be the same You will only be judged by your earthly deeds, Not your color or your name So when your time comes, And you see God in His Heaven above, Then you will see the only color that counts The beautiful color of love. -Arnold (Sparkly) Watts
