I found this song on line and it brought back memories galore. Some folks came from the states long time ago and many young people from various schools in East Africa joined them. Yours truly was to be counted among them. We just joined for the fun of it. Had I known any better, I doubt I would have done so now. They were not Catholics. :-[
We learnt many songs and put up concerts in the main cities of East Africa.  This was one of the songs we used to sing. They altered it so it was fitting for the African audience because on line it is slightly different.
What Color is god's skin?
 
"Good Night" I said to my little son
So tired out when the day was done
Then he said, as I tucked him in
"Tell me, Daddy- What Color is God's Skin?"
Chorus
What color is God's skin?  What color is God's Skin"
I said it's black, brown,  yellow... it is red, it is white
Every man's the same in the good Lord's sight.

He looked at me with his shining eyes,
I knew I could tell no lies
when he said "Daddy, why do the different races fight
If we're the same in the good Lord's sight?"

Chorus

"Son, that's part of our suffering past
But the whole human family is learning at last
That the  thing we need on the road we trod
Is to walk as the daughters and the sons of God".

Chorus

These words to Africa a man once hurled
God's last chance to make a world
The different races are meant to be
Our strength and glory from sea to sea.

Finding Our Lord everywhere and in everyone!   :biggrin:

It really is something to travel and see different cultures and peoples.

One makes experiences and meets people to always remember!

That is very true Shin. :)

'Catholic' means universal. The good Lord embraces one and all!  O:)
