Lyrics for Song: Color Me America
Lyrics for Album: For God and Country [Welk Music] [2003]
I'm red and white and blue, these are colors that ring true
To all I am and feel and love and do
I stand proud and brave and tall, I want justice for us all
So color me america, red, white and blue.
I see red when evil speaks, spilling red blood on our streets
And I feel blue from grief and sorrow that it brings
But the white and light of love, God's own spirit like a dove
Lifts us up and hands to us an olive branch.
Oh, sweet freedom may you stay in our land and lives always
And may peace and beauty fill our hearts anew
And may we all stand up for you, may our thoughts and deeds be true
And be worthy of your stripes, red, white and blue.
I am red and white and blue, these are colors that ring true
To all I am and feel and love and do
I stand proud and brave and tall, I want justice for us all
So color me america, red, white and blue.
Oh, sweet america, God won't you shed your grace on thee.
And crown thy good in brotherhood from sea to shining sea
Oh, color me america, red, white and blue, color me america...
