COLOURS OF GLORY
BLACK: He came a spotless ram among wolves Roaming the edges of the planet Until sin was poured on his head in the Jordan, Flowing through his streams and veins That John saw him from afar and said ‘Behold the lamb of God which Taketh away the sin of the world’; Though he wore a holy fleece It was stained before the eyes of the scribes That his father forsook him at last, God’s anointed was sold for thirty pieces of silver While his own people detested him; Born in a manger and hanged on a tree, The true prodigal son of God died for many.
RED: He was denied of his glory As men casted lots on his robe King of the Jews, was shamefully hailed; Life was drained out of him in bits And blood smeared all over his face For men thrust on him a crown of thorns To see blood ooze from his wounds Yet he never prayed to be healed. Obedience led him to the cross And finally laid him down to rest In Zion, the holy and great city After he was ousted from his eternal throne To freely sit and chat and dine with the lowly By the shedding of his blood on Calvary.
WHITE: One fine and clement morning, When the sun was up and birds filled the air, Heaven was rejoicing and angels could not hold Their tongues, spitting out glorious hymns For Christ now sits at God’s right hand A carpenter’s son made King of kings Far above all thrones, powers and dominion
In this present age and even that to come Delegating power, authority and grace To all who can bear the shame of the cross; He wears a crown of life and a majestic robe, Dazzling, white as a dove is planted on him That no man born flesh and blood can seize- He died to live forever to the glory of his father.
