IF I COULD HAVE SEEN MY COLOR PURPLE

IF I COULD HAVE SEEN MY LIFE, WHERE WOULD I BE?

LOOKING INTO THE THE MOUNTAINS MY EYES HAVE CRIED MANY OF FOUNTAINS.

MANY OF THINGS I'VE HAVE COME TO SEE,

I PRAISE THE LORD FOR WHAT HE HAS ALLOWED ME TO BE.

THE DOCTORS PRONOUCE ME DEAD AT TWO, MY GRANDMOTHER PRAYED AND SAID

GOD IS NOT THROUGH.

AT FIVE A MAN HURT ME BADLY

I'M STILL ALIVE.

MY YOUNG TEEN LIFE I FELT SO OUT IN SPACE,

MOST OF MY FRIENDS HAD LEFT THIS PLACE.

I HAD A CHILD WHO WOULD LOVE ME

A MAN WHO WOULD PUT A GUN TO MY FACE.

I'VE NEVER KNOWN HOW TO LOVE MYSELF, I THOUGHT I HAD TO PLEASE OTHERS TO BE LOVED.

I MUST LOVE MYSELF

THAT IS WHAT I MUST SEE TO BE ME.

I'VE CLIMB MANY MOUNTINS OF PAIN.

NOW I MUST CLIMB THE MOUNTIN THAT GOD HAS PROCLAIM.

ACCEPTING THE LORD CHRIST AS MY LORD AND SAVIOR.

I WILL SOON SEE MY LIFE WILL BE FREE.

PURPLE

THAT IS ME

JUST LIKE THE COLOR PURPLE GOD HAS NOT PASSED ME BY.

HE WAS JUST TRYING TO TELL ME SOMETHING.

AS I LOOK OUT INTO THAT BIG BLUE SKY, MY COLOR IS PURPLE

THERE IS NO REASON TO EVER CRY

GOD HAS NOT PASSED ME BY.

THANK YOU GOD FOR ALLOWING ME THE STRENTH TO CLIMB THESE MOUNTINS.

IF I COULD HAVE SEEN MY COLOR PURPLE

YOU WOULD HAVE NEVER SAW, THAT IS ME,

PAIN

UNDERSTANDING

REPECT

PRAYING

LOVING

EXPECTING

THE UNEXPECTED, MY COLOR PURPLE
