After many years, I found grace to be ~

All the characteristics that he gave me

On a hill so long ago

He died for me to give me hope

In a world often misleading

He gave me peace and his gift of believing

 

And when the world seems turbulent and grave

Seeing above from that which he died to save

Understanding of God from why he came

To save our world from darkness and shame

A love so pure it’s hard to understand

His mercy and grace for every man

 

The thief, the priest, the common man

In his offering  great compassion at hand

To anyone whose heart flowers to understand

That mercy and grace are for every land

And that he died to love a callous band

 

And this is love for a world lost in chaos and shame

All In Color DeColores!

 

Spanish Lyrics:

DeColores, decolores se visten los campos en la primavera.DeColores,

decolores son los pajarillos que vienen de afuera.

DeColores, decolores es el arco iris que vemos lucir.

I por eso los grandes amores de muchos colores me gustan a mi.

I por eso los grandes amores de muchos colores me gustan a mi.

DeColores, decolores brillantes y finos se viste la aura.

DeColores, decolores son los nil reflejos que el sol atesora.

DeColores, decolores se veste eo dimante que vemos lucir.

I por eso los grandes amores de muchos colores me gustan a mi.

I por eso los grandes amores de muchos colores me gustan a mi.

Canta el gallo, cant el gallo con el quiri, quiri, quiri, quiri, quiri.

La gallina, la gallina con el cara, cara, cara, cara, cara.

Los polluellos, los polluelos con el pio, pio, pio, pio, pi.

I por eso los grandes amores de muchos colores me gustan a mi.

I por eso los grandes amores de muchos colores me gustan a mi.

English Lyrics:

DeColores, decolores the fields love to dress in all during the springtime.

DeColores, decolores the birds have their clothing that comes every season.

DeColores, decolores the rainbow is vested across the blue sky.

DeColores, and so must all love be of every bright color to make my heart cry.

DeColores, and so must all love be of every bright color to make my heart cry.

DeColores, decolores we witness the sun up on clear and bright mornings.

DeColores, decolores the sun gives its treasures, God’s light to His children.

DeColores, decolores the diamond will sparkle when brought to the light.

DeColores, and so must all love be of every bright color to make my heart cry.

DeColores, and so must all love be of every bright color to make my heart cry.

(There are more of the lyrics, but this is what I remember)

Sings the rooster, sings the rooster with his quiri, quiri, quiri, quiri, quiri.

And the cluck hen, and the cluck hen with her cara, cara, cara, cara, cara.

And the babe chicks, and the babe chicks with their pio, pio, pio, pio, pie.

DeColores, and so must all love be of every bright color to make my heart cry.

DeColores, and so must all love be of every bright color to make my heart cry.
