The Red Words

[Verse 1]

The Bible says that we're all equal

But I've seen times when that ain't true

'Cause I've been good and I've been evil

And I've been forgiven too

I've learned that you can't fight life

I've learned the truth can set you free

The one I love and most admire

Is lyin' right here next to me

Well, she's the best in conversation

I've never seen her turn away

She's an open invitation

Just like the Bible's red words say

[Chorus]

The red words cut the deepest

The red words are the call

The red words come from Jesus

And they mean the most of all

[Verse 2]

She'd take a bullet for her children

She'd give 'em all her last breath

Always there and always willing

A mother's love never rests

And I know black's her favorite color

'Cause without it there's no depth

She says she loves me like no other

I think I know why Jesus wept

[Chorus]

The red words cut the deepest

The red words are the call

The red words come from Jesus

And they mean the most of all

[Bridge]

Let's show some kindness to a stranger

And be grateful for today

Open up your family Bible

And read what the red words say

Well, open up your family Bible

And read what the red words say
