WATER

Snippet

Iron rusts from disuse; water loses its purity from stagnation... 

even so does inaction sap the vigor of the mind. Leonardo da 

Vinci

Scripture

Jesus answered, “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty 

again, but whoever drinks the water I give them will never 

thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring 

of water welling up to eternal life.” John 4:13,14

Something In The Water

He said, "I've been where you've been before.

Down every hallway's a slamming door.

No way out, no one to come and save me.

Wasting a life that the Good Lord gave me.

Then somebody said what I'm saying to you,

Opened my eyes and told me the truth."

They said, "Just a little faith, it'll all get better."

So I followed that preacher man down to the river and now I'm changed

And now I'm stronger

There must've been something in the water

Oh, there must've been something in the water

Well, I heard what he said and I went on my way

Didn't think about it for a couple of days

Then it hit me like a lightning late one night

I was all out of hope and all out of fight

Couldn't fight back the tears so I fell on my knees

Saying, "God, if you're there come and rescue me."

Felt love pouring down from above

Got washed in the water, washed in the blood and now I'm changed

And now I'm stronger

There must be something in the water

Oh, there must be something in the water

And now I'm singing along to amazing grace

Can't nobody wipe this smile off my face

Got joy in my heart, angels on my side

Thank God almighty, I saw the light

Gonna look ahead, no turning back

Live every day, give it all that I have

Trust in someone bigger than me

Ever since the day that I believed I am changed

And now I'm stronger

There must be something in the water (amazing grace)

Oh, there must be something in the water (how sweet the sound)

Oh, there must be something in the water (that saved a wretch)

Oh, there must be something in the water (like me)

Oh, yeah

I am changed (I once was lost)

Stronger (but now I'm found)

(was blind but now I see)

Sentence Prayer

Thank you, Lord, for the endless ways your reveal yourself to us.  

We are so quick to separate heaven from earth, but you shine 

forth in all things created by your hand.  Teach us that to delight 

in the beauty of the earth is another way of praising you.  Amen!

(Common Prayer A Liturgy for Ordinary Radicals Nov 13)
