So many different religions And so many different churches And if god really loves me Then why does life keep hurting me? If you've ever asked any of these questions Well, my friend I've got the answer, just listen You have the power to make the seasons change The river flows for you, the wind whispers your name For me you left your throne, and traded crown for thorns instead I'm saved within, not by your skin, but because your blood was red Some say you're black, you're white, they question if you're real We treat you like we treat ourselves, I wonder how you feel To see your children fight, in spite the tears for us you shed Doesn't matter what color you are, as long as your blood was red, for it's Strong enough, to wash away my sins Pure enough, to cleanse me deep within Real enough, to find me when I'm lost Great enough, to die upon the cross Doesn't matter what color you are, as long as your blood was red We may be different, but the god we serve's the same Yet every sunday we separate, and bring the father pain Your name is higher than any other, yet you took my place instead Y ahora mis pecados son limpios, because your blood was red Strong enough, to wash away my sins Pure enough, to cleanse me deep within Real enough, to find me when I'm lost Great enough, to die upon the cross Doesn't matter what color you are, as long as your blood was red Oh, precious is the flow That's makes me white as snow No other fount I know Doesn't matter what color you are, as long as your blood was red Doesn't matter what color you are, as long as your blood was red Doesn't matter what color I am, as long as my blood was red
