Polka Dots
POLKA DOTS
In order to be seen, polka dots need a background
Otherwise, they could never be found
Life is viewed in much the same way
If people would only stop and say
I see you simply for who you are
Your background may not shine like a star
But you are made in the image of God
And I dare not go where evil trods
Our hue may be quite differently seen
But it doesn't allow us to be mean
All men should strive to look beyond
The polka dot syndrome to become fond
Of our neighbor who is born with a different hue
But still made in God's own image too
If in God's eyes color is no blot
He doesn't see any polka dots
The only color God can see
Is the Blood His Son shed for you and me
So if you think of races as polka dots
God's grace cleanses you of unrighteous spots
