about

Most songwriters, Musicians love to paint or draw. Its all part of the creative process. Trying to express what your felling in a way that other people can relate to.
There was an old kids evangelistic booklet I was given when i was about 13-14. It came with a bight mulitcolouted thin plastic glove, each finger a individual colour representing the message of Jesus.
I began to study scripture about the use of flags. Their main use was actually to declare a military presence and used by blokes. So I put down my guitar picked up a flag & still to this day normally include colours in the all age shows & concerts.

lyrics

Gold was was the colour of that first day
Radiant yellow of sunrise
They ran in the beauty of all God had made
They hue of His love in their eyes
Black was the fear that darkened the door
Eclipsing the truth of all gone before
Obsidian lies blinding all of mankind
Colouring our judgement
to be colour blind

Red was the cross
Crimson the blood flowing from Jesus
He broke the curse of the Cardinal sin
He rose from the dead to free us
White was the light pure & pristine
Illuminating us making us clean
Sin red as scarlet now washed white as snow
God showed his true colours
and salvation showed

The colours of salvation
Redeeming the past
flowed into one
through God's holy son
when the colours were nailed to the mast

Green is the growth of new birth
A springtime of loves celebration
An emerald light that commands us to go
and troop the colours of salvation
Blue is for Heaven our final home
Where with flying colours around the royal throne
We'll unfurl forever our final hope
And worship in colours not even known
