With its simple words and catchy tune, this hymn can be easily learned and sung by both children and adults.

Complete Lyrics:
RED IS THE COLOR
Blue is the sky, Black is the night,
Green are the meadows, White is the light,
Pink are the clouds, When day is done—
Red is the color Of the blood of God's Son.

CHORUS:
Forth from His side His blood He shed—
A cleansing tide Of crimson red,
My sins were on The Holy One—
Red is the color Of the blood of God's Son.

My soul was dark, Black as the night,
Without one saving Sunbeam of light;
Then I believed What God had done—
Red is the color Of the blood of God's Son.

(then chorus again)
