Grounded in the Water – revised – v2

All of life's problems bleed away

When I get grounded in the water.

Grounded in the love of God

the never-ending wellspring of life

poured out for all who would drink

who would draw in the energy, the love,

the grace of God’s gifts, so freely given

Like the woman at the well

we ask for the cup to be filled

for our thirst to be quenched,

without having to walk to the well

thirsty and tired, hot and tired

wanting, needing that water

to grounded our faith

Lord, we pray for

a special anointing;

strengthening our spirits

to go and do His work
