A Lenten Hymn
This was a theme song for the Disciples/UCC FebCamp event held this past February.
THE COLOR OF GOD ( by Paul B. Svenson )
Them and us, dark and light
Can't they speak the language right
Tall or short, fat or thin
Laugh at her, point at him
Foreign customs, wheelchair
Judge them by the clothes they wear
Diff'rence everywhere to find
So play it safe, with your own kind
CHORUS
Let all hearts arise
Let all hatred fall
Faith can conquer fear
Love can conquer all
Our difference is our blessing
And there's one thing you should know . . .
You're the color of God - Oh
I'm the color of God - Oh
We are the color of God
He or she, gay or straight
Someone taught us who to hate
How he worships, where she lives
Liberals, Conservatives
Border crossers, refugees
Tear down our economy
Red, brown, yellow, black and white
We all know, which one is right
TO CHORUS
Each a blessing, each unique
Each a wonder, each a treat
We all have joy, we all have tears
We all have prejudice and fears
So many ways we're all the same
Beyond our language, looks and names
Open hearts can open doors
I'll show you mine, you show me yours

I FEEL GOOD!
I woke up this morning
The world seemed so real
God's love's smilin' on me
Ask me whose I am
Ask me how I feel
With God's love's smilin' on me
(I'll tell you ...)
CHORUS
I feel good!
Oh I feel so good (uh!)
God's love's smilin' on me
I feel good!
Oh I feel so good (uh!)
God's love's smilin' on me
I've got friends to my left
And friends to my right
God's love's smilin' on me
I'm walkin' with the Word
And livin' in the Light
God's love's smilin' on me
TO CHORUS
When my life feels low
I fear that I might fail
God's love's smilin' on me
When the day turns dark
And the hounds are on my trial
God's love's smilin' on me
TO CHORUS
When I've lost my way
Start to stray,
Can't find the words to say
God's love's smilin' on me
When my nerves fray
Can't stay,
Havin' a bad hair day
God's love's smilin' on me
TO CHORUS
