The purpose of man is to glorify God and to enjoy him forever;
“So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God”;
“Worthy are you, our Lord and God, to receive glory and honor and power;
Hallelujah

 For were created all things, and by your will they existed and were created
 God, our loving Heavenly Father, 
Wants us to find happiness and joy
 He created a plan for us to grow, 
Live by faith, and return to live with Him someday confessor 
We are ALL colored

In the likeness of Our Father
Abba Elohim is adoptive father
Rainbow energy unites us
We are all HIS children under the Son
We are ALL colored
Heavenly beings for Elohim

WE ARE ALL COLORED--
