Surely this crimson sky tells a story;

Undersides of clouds radiant; blood-like.

New day dawns with God’s brush painting.

Red sky in the morning, sailor’s warning,

I have heard it said since I was a child.

Surely this crimson sky tells a story

Everything in the world colored by Him.

Surely this crimson sky tells a story,

Undersides of clouds radiant; blood-like.

Now eve comes with God’s brush painting.

Surely this crimson sky tells a story,

Everything in the world colored by Him.

The night’s palette darkens again.
