Written in Red
The old Bible lay on the shelf
Its golden letters faded and worn
Words within offering help
Its pages tattered and torn
The words of a man named Jesus
Love and peace He said
Telling how much God loves us
Each word written in red
So long ago He climbed a hill
His life to give for sins
Come to me whomever will
One day you'll live again
The ink on the pages will fade
Even the words He said
But what He did for us that day
Will forever be written in red
