RED, WHITE, & BLUE
© 2002 by Ramesh C. Reddy
Red blood
White light
Blue faces
Blood of the victims’ cries
Light of the Heavens cries
Faces of the lonely cries
For the life that was lost
So much was the cost
On Sept 11th last year
Leaving so much fear
Is the Lord Jesus still near?
Does the Lord Jesus hear?
There are questions of why
All those people had to die
Even without saying good bye
Still I know the Lord is on High
He saw the slaughter of our peers
He saw the son/daughter with fears
He saw the water of our tears
He feels the fears of our pain
He hears the tears of our rain
He sees the lonely faces of blue
He sees the victims’ blood of red
He sees Heaven’s light of White
For He is the Light so white
In the darkest night
He offers comfort to faces of blue
In all cases sticky as glue
He shed His blood of red
Taking sin’s flood I dread
In Him we can put our hope
In Him we can have endurance to cope
In Him we can one day climb Heaven’s rope
He knows Red
He knows Blue
He knows White
They are the same color of our flag
So many carry in their bag
Red reminds me of blood sacrificed for freedom
White reminds me of lives receiving light of freedom
Blue reminds me of lives suffering for faces of freedom
We will take a stand
With the Lord in our land
One day sin of terrorism will be banned
Everyone will walk hand in hand!
Amen!
