The Cardinal
High atop a sun washed tree
perched a Cardinal
handsome and confidant
as could be
High atop a sun washed tree
not a doves mournful cry
or a crows callous CAW!
but clear distinct notes and call
High atop a sun washed tree
perched a Cardinal for me to see
“with the first gleam of dawn”
lighting his deep crimson red
he stands out
with beautiful tail and crested head
High atop a sun washed tree
nailed there for all to see
Jesus Christ My Lord My Savior My King
covered in deep crimson red
a clearer call there can not be
High atop a sun washed tree
perched a Cardinal, as a reminder
of the blood he shed just for me
I turn to Him now
please,
join me.
