Who are we to judge? Who are we to say that, that person isn't good enough just because of the color of their skin? Didn't God say to love the Lord your God with ALL your heart, to treat your neighbor as yourself? Just bothers me that we look at someone and say that they aren't good enough, just because. Shouldn't the question be (as a Christian)- Do they love God, are they serving Him and a Christian? I don't care if you date a person of a another color... my first question will always be. Does he/she love the Lord. In any relationship, put God first, have Him direct you... the path He puts you on is always well light.


Color People ~ DC Talk

Pardon me, your epidermis is showing, sir
I couldn't help but note your shade of melanin
I tip my hat to the colorful arrangement
Cause I see the beauty in the tones of our skin


We've gotta come together
And thank the Maker of us all

(chorus)
We're colored people, and we live in a tainted place
We're colored people, and they call us the human race
We've got a history so full of mistakes
And we are colored people who depend on a Holy Grace


A piece of canvas is only the beginning for
It takes on character with every loving stroke
This thing of beauty is the passion of an Artist's heart
By God's design, we are a skin kaleidoscope

We've gotta come together,
Aren't we all human after all?

(repeat chorus)

Ignorance has wronged some races
And vengeance is the Lord's
If we aspire to share this space
Repentance is the cure


Well, just a day in the shoes of a color blind man
Should make it easy for you to see
That these diverse tones do more than cover our bones
As a part of our anatomy
