Jelly Bean Prayer
Red is for the blood He gave.
Green is for the garden where he prayed.
Yellow is for the sun so bright.
Orange is for the edge of night.
Black is for the sins we made,
White is for His hour of sorrow.
Pink is for our new tomorrow.
A bag of jelly beans, colorful and sweet.
Is a prayer, Is a promise, Is a treat.
AMEN
