You could add something like this to your code:

import random


def readTxtLines(filename):
    with open(filename, "r") as f:
        lines = f.readlines()
    return lines


def getRandomLine(lines):
    return random.choice(lines).strip()


print(getRandomLine(readTxtLines("test.txt")))

Here is a method in cog form:

import random

@commands.command()
async def color(self,ctx):
    filename1=open('cogs/color.txt','r')
    wordList1=[line.rstrip('\n') for line in filename1]
    filename1.close()
    out1 = random.choice(wordList1)
    await ctx.send(f"color: {out1}")
