downstream from us

so many hearts, lives
those who will come after
some after we have gone
living downstream from us
The same living water
flowing, through time
from those who have come before
through your hearts and mine
wanting to be faithful
to live out our belief
wanting those who follow
the joy which we keep
deep within our hearts
pouring from our lives
welling up within us
proof we are really alive
