Expressions of Our Worship – v3
In our individual walks of
faith
each one revealing, sharing,
expressions of our praise,
our worship
our living with the Word.
Little acts of kindness
Caring for our neighbors’
needs
Serving our brothers and our
sisters
going where we are called.
Reflecting the love of our
Father
Giving Him everything
seeking to love and Serve
Him
our Master over all.

Holy Water - v6
The divine was revealed
made clean, prepared, anointed,
not with a golden crown;
but with water,
not in the Temple
but there in the Jordan,
in the wilderness
in the water with John.
Submitting to an act of trust,
a falling into the water
a washing away of our sin
in supplication and fulfillment
to begin His own journey,
His three years of ministry,
His mission, His fate, Jesus,
our risen Lord and Savior.

Holy Water – v3
The divine was revealed
made clean, prepared, anointed
not with a crown;
but with water
not in the Temple
but in the Jordan
in the barren wilderness.
Submitting to an act of trust,
falling into the Jordan
washing away all sin
in supplication and fulfillment
to begin His own journey
His mission, His fate
our Savior, our Lord.

Baptismal Waters – v5
Two pitchers, two bowls of water
Two pair of hands - of the pastor
and the Roman Proconsul
Markers of a life well spent
the Lamb, the King of the Jews
the representative of Caesar
Water poured ritually
from pitcher to bowl
hear it clatter and splash
Close your eyes,
feel the liquid on your skin
as you are preacher or Pilate
One dips His hands into living water
rests them on His head
in blessing, a sacrament
The other cups His hands in the deep
washes His hands of Him, their sin,
giving the Son over to the mob,
in verdict and fulfillment

Baptismal Waters – v2
Two pitchers, two bowls
Two pair of hands
of the pastor and
the Roman Proconsul
Metaphorical markers of a life well spent
the Lamb, the King of the Jews
Water poured ritually from pitcher to bowl
hear it clatter and swirl
Close your eyes, feel the liquid on your skin
as you are preacher or Pilate
One dips His hands into the living water
rests them on His head in blessing, a
sacrament
The counterpart cups His hands in the deep
washes His hands of Him
gives the Son over to the mob,
in verdict and fulfillment

Holy Water – v2
The divine was revealed
made clean, prepared, anointed
not with a crown;
but with water
not in the Temple
but in the Jordan
in the wilderness.
Submitting to an act of trust,
washing away sin
in supplication and fulfillment
to begin His own journey
His mission, His fate
our Savior,
our Lord.
