The Ruby Red Birthstone
by Patty Moore © 2009

This birthstone I wear
Within my heart
Color of ruby red
Jesus did impart

Not something seen
On the outside for show
His most precious jewel
With a inner glow

This kind of stone
Is formed only by Him
He's the Master Refiner
Of this special gem

A stone by His blood
On the cross was made
In ruby red blood drops
Love was on display

Each drop that ran
Told of His love
It fell upon me
In the form of His blood

My life, My love
To Him I belong
I wear within my heart
The Ruby Red Birthstone
