[Verse 1]
 A
Red is the color of the blood that flowed
          G       D                    A
down the face of someone who loves us so
          A
He's the perfect man, he's the Lord's own son,
          G       D                 A
he's the Lamb of God, he's the only one
 
[Chorus 1]
          G       D                      A
That can give us life, that can make us grow,
          G        D               A   G D A
That can make the love between us flow.
 
[Verse 2]
 A
Blue is the color of a heart so cold,
    G        D                     A
it will not bend when the story's told
        A
Of the love of God for a sinful race,
        G          D                  A
of the blood that flowed down Jesus´ face
 
[Chorus 2]
          G       D                      A
That can give us life, that can make us grow,
          G        D                   A   G D A
That can keep our hearts from growing cold.
 
[Verse 3]
 A
Gold is the color of the morning sun,
       G        D             A
that shines so freely an everyone.
          A
It's the sun above that that keeps us warm,
          G      D                    A
it's the son of love, that calms the storm
 
[Chorus 3]
          G       D                      A
That can give us life, that can make us grow,
          G        D             A    G D A
That can turn our mornings into gold.
 
[Verse 4]
 A
Brown is the color of the autumn leaves,
          G      D                   A
when the winter comes to the barren trees.
          A
There is birth, there is death, there is a plan,
             G        D                         A
and there's just one God, and there's just one man
 
[Chorus 4]
          G       D                      A
That can give us life, that can make us grow,
          G        D                A
That can make our sins as white as snow
          G       D                      A
That can give us life, that can make us grow,
          G        D             A
That can turn our mornings into gold.
          G       D                      A
That can give us life, that can make us grow,
          G        D                   A
That can keep our hearts from growing cold.
          G       D                      A
That can give us life, that can make us grow,
          G        D               A
That can make the love between us flow.
