Lyrics Copyright 2025 Kevin Kenny

[Verse 1]
Shades of blue dance in the night
Contours twisted catch the light
Every tone brings a new view
Life in stories rocking through

[Verse 2]
Green in shadows whispers low
Earth and tree where rivers flow
Colors blend they tell the truth
Bold young life with elements of hue

[Chorus]
Red like fire it sparks my heart
Passion’s rush a burning start
Yellow sun and golden dawns
Paint my dreams till they're gone

[Bridge]
Gray of storm with silver streaks
Thunder rolls in voice so sleek
Bright and dark they clash they fuse
Catch the glow the elements of hue

[Verse 3]
Purple twilight comes to play
Secrets hidden they slip away
In this palette find what’s true
Hands that shape these elements of hue

[Chorus]
Red like fire it sparks my heart
Passion’s rush a burning start
Yellow sun and golden dawns
Paint my dreams till they're gone

[Outro]
Red like fire it sparks my heart
Passion’s rush a burning start
Yellow sun and golden dawns
Paint my dreams till they're gone
till they're gone...

Himno 121

1-Unción divina en mí mora,
Y me͜ enseña todo͜ a mí;
En el Señor me guía a vivir,
Su presencia trae a mí.
 
En mi͜ espíritu mora la͜ unción,
Oh, sí, mora la͜ unción,
Me ha de enseñar;
En mi͜ espíritu mora la͜ unción,
Y siempre me enseñará.

2-Cuando͜ el Espíritu se mueve,
Suave͜ y puro͜ ungüento es;
Y donde͜ está la sangre eficaz,
Se puede la͜ unción mover.

3-Unge con Su divina͜ esencia,
Para darse͜ a conocer,
Para que pueda Su͜ elemento así
Saturar todo mi ser.

4-Por la unción de vida͜ interna
Yo me muevo͜ en comunión;
Andando͜ en Dios, la luz de la verdad,
En Su gracia͜ encuentro͜ amor.

Hymn 266

1-Divine anointing in me dwelleth,
And it teaches me all things;
It ever leads me in the Lord to live
And to me His presence brings.

	In my spirit the anointing dwells,
	O the anointing dwells and teaches everything;
	In my spirit the anointing dwells
	And ever teaches everything.

2-It is the moving of the Spirit
Gracious as the ointment pure;
'Tis based upon the sprinkling of the blood,
And it ever shall endure.

3-With God's own essence it anoints me,
God to know subjectively,
That I may have His very element
Fully saturating me.

4-'Tis by this inner life-anointing
I in fellowship may move;
In God, the light of truth, I'm walking,
And the love of grace I prove.
