In letters of crimson, God wrote His love
On the hillside so long, long ago;
For you and for me Jesus died,
And love’s greatest story was told.
(chorus:)
I love you, I love you
That’s what Calvary said;
I love you, I love you,
I love you, written in red.
Down through the ages, God wrote His love
With the same hands that suffered and bled;
He was giving all he had to give,
A message so easily read.
I love you, I love you
That’s what Calvary said;
I love you, I love you,
I love you, written in red.
I love you, I love you…
I love you, written in red.
